Badgers034 Hobbyist Posts: 59 Kudos: 23 Votes: 4 Registered: 15-Feb-2006	i currently have: 3x Platies 3x Flame Tetras (im gonna get 3 more) 4x Peppered Corys 2x Harlequin Rasboras (im giving them away) 1x Red Tailed Shark And i was wondering if i could put a pair of Rams into this commmunity of fish?? If I could should i put a really nice hiding spot in there, like a flower pot or something like that? P.S. My red tailed shark is extremely mild mannered.

They're nice fish and all, but (since I assume you're asking about Mikrogeophagus ramirezi- the German ram) they are often touchy in regards to water conditions and tankmates. The shark may get more aggressive as it ages, and honestly I think you'd be better getting a much larger group of flame tetras and more cory cats. I used to think differently, but now I'm of the opinion that bigger groups of fewer species look nicer than a random assortment of fish. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."
