Can I mix a blue ram with a bolivian ram? Will they spawn?

they could be 2 females...2 males ( with plenty of space ) or 2 pairs ( one of each ) but i wouldnt put a bolivian male with a blue female and vise vursa. they will interbreed they dont care. but once pair with thier own kind it shouldnt be a problem.

You can have Bolivian rams in with German rams, and not have any trouble. They most likely won't fight with each other, especially if each fish has space to claim its own territory.

I've never heard that these fish would spawn together, and I personally doubt that they would (or could). Though they are closely related fish, they are still different enough so that no viable fry will result from a spawning. That's just my opinion, and I stand by it until proven wrong.

In my tank, I have 3 types of german rams, and bolivians. All living in harmony.

The golds seem to only be interested in the other golds, the bolivians only care about each other and so on.

Edit..*marks post* It's my 800th!
