Jurrian Hering Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I’m trying to breed my Bolivian Rams but not sure how I should set up their tank. They are in a planted 20H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Good food is the A number one thing, I would use blackworms if they were available. The male likes to excavate a little depression in sand or gravel (sometimes all the way down to the glass), or the sometime a flat horizontal rock is chosen for the spawning site. If I remember, breeding temperatures were around 80 - 82 °F, but I don't think temperature or water parameters are all that critical. Planted 20H seems like a good start. They aren't as easy as Convicts to spawn, but they generally want to spawn if both sexes are present and they are well fed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Roszell Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Mine really started breeding when I put a bunch of flat and rounded river rocks in the tank with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Kendrick Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Smooth rocks for her to lay the eggs on and cover. I just had a pair spawn in a 45G community tank. They did so under the edge of some drift wood and a big sword plant. I would recommend Dean and Cory's video on the COOP youtube about breeding german blue rams and setting up a tank with hiding places and rocks for spawning. Good luck! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
