I bought three Bolivian rams for my 20-gallon tank. They are active and peaceful, and the group behavior is fascinating to watch. Easy to care for and they eat well on a mix of flakes and frozen foods.

The fish have adapted well to my tank. They don’t stress other fish and stay active throughout the day. I appreciate the clear coloration and their calm demeanor.
