I have one semi-peaceful tank (the one w/ my peacocks and the Hongi breeding group) | |

| I'm with you, Angela. I never meant to have a tank full of unrepentant criminals. That's just one facet of the species to which I am drawn! | |

| Allie,
Of course all these sites contradict each other. Thank you though. At least one site validates my desire to put a pair of rams in my tank. So you've fed the fire here.

Kacie | Of course they do, lol. They are pretty peaceful from my short experience with just one with 3 German blue ram the long finned type and some corydoras. | |

| Allie,
If a tank had corys and Gbrs what else would you put in to maybe swim around the top/middle of the tank?

Kacie | Some sort of tetra would be cool. Any schooling fish would look nice.  | |

I think we had the Ram,a couple of small cories, Skunk ones maybe, and a school of tetras that had white tips on their fins. That Ram was the prettiest fish we've ever had, I wish they weren't so freakin' sensitive. Its scared us off ever keeping one again. | |

| Hey I'm glad to hear the setup works. I'm thinking maybe an apisto would be hardier? But I', relieved to know that the cories can coexsist with rams. | |
