You could then stock it with various types of tetras, or rasboras. There would be a multitude of choices you could make. What is it that you like?

A group of small cories for the bottom and perhaps a plec. Check out this link for other suggestions as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

How big do rams get, and if i got a pair, could i get a male, and a female and breed them? Also, if i was to put some live plants, should i use sand or gravel and what kind? †Aquapickle†
