I have a 20g with 4 German rams and I'd like some suggestions on tankmates. Mostly I'm interested in hearing from people who have kept the species. I know they're okay in community tanks, but if I wanted to do a tank with all peaceful cichlids, do you think it would stay peaceful? :)
 
Blue rams compared to other dwarves their same size can be fiesty. Plus not a lot of other dwarves like the rams prefered higher temps. I've mostly kept them with heat loving tetras, like rummynose or cardinals. Once with some noto dwarf pikes which can also handle the heat, though it isn't the best for them.
 
ive kept rams with most anything that doesnt have long fins ie guppies. iv kept them with tetras, cories, platies, even some gouramis.
