Stay on top of the water quality, especially if considering German/Blue Rams. If Bolivian Rams are available, they are a more hardy choice. Welcome to Fish Profiles!

Janna Mega Fish Posts: 1386 Registered: 24-Aug-2003	I wouldn't ever put an angel in a 20 gallon permanently. I would only put a pair in there temporarily to breed, then they would be taken out and moved to a bigger tank. They just get too big for a 20 gallon tank. The rams would work in a 20. They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

Since i moved my angel from my 20g into my 70g, it has had a major growth spurt, and its fins are so much longer and they don't look all shabby like they were in the 20g. A pair of rams would be a much better idea cfd -------------------------- Billy was a scientist, Billy is no more. For what he thought was H20, was H2SO4

If you want Rams & Angels, get a bigger tank. http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
