Alright Iv been having a huge headache on sexing EBR. And I really want to breed electric blue rams but I can't seem to sex them!! I have a total of 8 and 1 male gold ram with them you know just in case. I have herd of purple belly are females? Which I have 3 that have a bright purplish belly. And males are usually more aggressive but it seems like they all have aggression!?!? What's going on here... Well I have had 1 that has been chasing a lot and picking on others a lot non stop. Could he be a male? I will do my best to get some photos. Iv also herd it's quite difficult to sex them at 3 1/2 months of age. Please help I'm extremely lost in sexing these beauties. Also if any has ever bred them how do you breed them? Please show photo examples would help a lot. :)

leave them alone, give them warm water (82 to 84f ) try and have your water soft and a little acide give them flat rocks or even a small flower pot for them to lay there egg on feed them live foods if possible (brine shrimps ,white worms....) even good quality flaques and freeze dried food will help and .make water changes once or twice a week and wait they will pair up by themselves,rams are usually not that hard to get to lay eggs but it is harder to raise the babys!
