I've been trying to track down some healthy Blue Rams recently, but after 2 weeks of looking around all my LFS's (3 of them and I even drove 60 miles to another) and I even checked 2 Pets at Home on the off chance, but every shop apart from one, the Rams had whitespot!

Could this be something in the water, or a bad shipment of Rams which ended up in all the shops?

Ich is one of those parasites that tends to be distributed to almost every LFS tank. If you really want to Rams buy the healthiest looking ones, put them in a QT tank. Let them acclimate to the tank for about 2 hours and then start salt treating them to kill the whitespot. Salt them for 14 days to guarantee a 100% kill following David's directions and you should have healthy whitespot free fish.
