wow, blue rams are quite popular in the threads lately. Anyway, while observing the rams today, I noticed one has been bumped out of her regularly territory, which was odd. While observing more, I noticed what looks like little clear eggs in a wad of transparent slime on top of a lower leaf. That would explain the over-aggression.

But I suppose my question is: what colors mean what? If I remember right, white is fungus, or was it bacteria? I think fungus. Brown is fertalized. Does that sum it up?

And really, they shouldnt be able to be fertalized. If my sexing is correct, both are female. The male I have is just a wee little lad and he growing up in the 55g until he is big enough to choose his woman friend.

Am I right so far or is there something Im missing?

Is that even what ram eggs look like?
 
I have no idea from my own experiences, but I'm just hoping to give you a quick reply. I'm pretty sure I remember people on here saying that white = fungus. I'm guessing brown is fertilized.
 
Yeah, rams lay their eggs on the gravel or a smooth stone on the bottom of the tank and they are round little beige colored dots.

White is fungus.....and if you don't remove the white ones the whole clutch will be lost.
