Max Size: Up to 3 inches (7.5 cm)

Recommend pH: 6.0-7.5

Recommended Temperature (°F): 78-82°F (25-28°C)

Diet: Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams are omnivorous and will accept a variety of foods. They can be fed high-quality flake or pellet foods designed for tropical fish. It's beneficial to supplement their diet with small live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, and daphnia. Including some vegetable matter in their diet, such as spirulina-based flakes or blanched vegetables, is also recommended.

Temperament: Peaceful

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Non-Schooling Fish (Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams are not schooling fish, but they can be kept in pairs or small groups. It's important to provide sufficient territory and hiding places for each individual.)

Possible types of tank mates: Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams are peaceful and can be kept with other small, peaceful community fish. They are compatible with other small cichlids, tetras, rasboras, and non-aggressive bottom-dwelling species. Avoid keeping them with larger or aggressive fish that may intimidate or harm them.

Behavior: Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams, also known as Microgeophagus ramirezi, are a unique variant of the popular Ram Cichlid. They have a distinct appearance with a round, balloon-like body shape and a striking electric blue coloration. Their gold-colored head adds an additional touch of elegance. Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams have a peaceful temperament, making them suitable for community aquariums. They prefer a well-planted aquarium with plenty of hiding spots and territories to establish. Rams are known for their interesting behavior of forming monogamous pairs and engaging in courtship displays. They are attentive parents and will care for their eggs and fry, which adds an extra level of fascination to observing their breeding behavior.

Fun Fact: The Balloon Ram is a selectively bred variant of the popular Ram Cichlid. The balloon gene causes the body to have a rounder, more compact shape compared to the wild-type Ram Cichlid. This unique appearance has made them highly sought after in the aquarium hobby. The Electric Blue coloration, coupled with the gold head, creates a stunning contrast that captures the attention of fish enthusiasts. It's important to note that Balloon Rams may be more prone to certain health issues due to their altered body shape, so proper care and water conditions are crucial for their well-being. Despite their unique appearance, Gold Head Electric Blue Balloon Rams retain the peaceful nature and fascinating behavior that make Rams beloved aquarium fish.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Mr. Ali

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
