If you like orange/red fish have you looked at gold rams? Even flame gourami, gold gourami? Then a there’s kribs they have pretty colours with red/orange in the tails

edit: if you went withram or gourami you could do cherry barbs...they are red!!

So with lots careful thinking i may get 4 MIKROGEOPHAGUS RAMIREZI cichlids for my 30 gallon also i think i may not get african butterfly for risk of it eating the german blue rams

Of course you choose the hardest ones. <sigh>
You'll need to keep the temp up there at 82. A raphael will do ok there al though not many fish will. While they can live in your tap they are extremely finicky fish so I would suggest for you got either buy distilled/ro water or get an ro unit. The ro buddy unit only costs like $55. You will need the best of luck with these fish. You also need to make sure you get them from a good source.

They are mostly yellow. Matteo didn't say that he was looking for yellow. What species are you referring to as a 'flame' gourami or 'gold' gourami? I know dwarf cichlids but I know a thing ot two about gouramis too. Kribs are a good one but they have bright yellow-again.

But not suited to the rams temperature needs. They would do great with gouramis though! However cardinal tetras would go great with the rams.

Im a biotopist. I only like to mix fish form the same areas of the world. So no barbs with south American fish. lol

Apistogramma. lol. Apisos are much, much hardier. Just don't do any of the rare, wild caught, F1, F2 or unusual species. That is one of the reasons that I haven't kept rams - yet! lol. I will some day.

Ok, good. Go with an apisto. but do NOT get a rare one. The ones I mentioned are beginner friendle so you should have some luck with them! What are you leaning to?
