SuperMummy! Mega Fish Posts: 1207 Kudos: 915 Votes: 30 Registered: 03-Jan-2003	If you had a 4' tank, well planted, with neons and corys, would you just add rams to join the lone female already there - or is there another cichlid species who would be compatible in this setup? x

I assume you want to keep your setup South American? If so, then I'd just add another ram, maybe three to make two pairs. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

You could add a few more rams and a couple of keyholes. Keyholes like company, so I'd suggest more than one. Angelfish work as well, though it would be best to get one so you don't have breeding aggression. Basically any dwarf cichlid will work too. EDIT: Oh wait, you might have problems with the neons and angelfish. Better stick to keyholes or dwarf cichids. HTH Last edited by solublefish at 07-Oct-2004 18:37

Would they grow and not try to eat them, as is rumoured with Angels?
