Compatible Ram Cichlids Tank Mates *My Experience With Compatible Species* 

Nice work. Thanks for taking the time to do a comprehensive list and for sharing your tanks.

Loving the look of that community tank, the tannin water makes it look more natural. I need to get some plecos or corys, ive never kept them. Nice update and im glad your fish look like they are doing great! Even if they are being ignored thanks to your Uni.

I was looking forward to seeing your video today but don't worry about doing them if you're too busy we completely understand we've all been there. I'm amazed that you're able to do both actually. Video is awesome thank you for all the info

13:22 beautiful angel fish ♥️😊 great vid Justin 👍 by the way I think the tannins look great! ☺️ looking forward to the next video!

Awesome video Justin , all your tanks are looking absolutely amazing , love the tanning's and your fish look absolutely stunning. Good luck with uni!!! I've just finished setting up the 260ltr ram aquarium . Keep up the good work 🙂 btw I've purchased 4 Gold Rams the other week

Hi Justin! I’m really enjoying this video and thank you for fulfilling my request lol! Your fish are amazing and these are some solid choices! Uni is important and we can wait 2-4 weeks for an upload from you and we will still be there and I’ve your vids. I was wondering what you feed your bristlenose? My ones that I won are still pretty small. Thanks for sharing and going to the effort of making the video, and keep up with the amazing work Justin! I hope uni will he stress free very soon... 😁👍👏🐠😅

Great video. Glad you did a community tank topic. I’m not a fish breeder but still enjoy your channel. Good luck with your finals! Mike, Philadelphia USA

Great vid again! Nice set ups you got there. Cheers man.

thank you so much for sharing your experience about tank mates with gbrs,, also for discussing about your discus.. really appreciate it..... kudos for your efforts!!!

I just found your channel, loved the video, you have a new subscriber here 😊, I absolutely love rams, I finally bit the bullet and bought some today to add to my 4ft tank, funnily enough I also bought a couple of bristle nose plecos, and salt and pepper Cory's, I already had albino Cory's in the tank, with endlers, Siamese algae eaters, kuhli loach, and a whole bunch of Malaysian trumpet snails, my tank is also very heavily planted with water sprite❤ I absolutely love the natural look of your tanks, it's how I like to keep mine too❤❤❤

Everything is looking so awesome and a great video! I feel you on the university work, thinks have been crazy busy so no worries! Gotta focus on priorities man.

Great advice mate. Love the l201's would love some of them.

Another great video. I see a bright future for you.🥰 Rams are my favorite fish. I can only get German Blues, & Bolivian where I live, Cary, North Carolina.

Nice one boet! Well done fitting in a video when you’re so busy studying. Regarding fish choice, I like what you recommend, but I can also get highly recommend pencil fish - I guess they’re similar to small tetras 😄 Keep up the good work 👍🏻

Another great video 👍 Love the content

My bn plecos are breeding me fishroom out of house and home!! 4 generation in 6 weeks in a 20 gallon long hahaha!!ive set up a few new tanks I have many plecos to move. Great to see your latest video mate, I’m a bit late to the party but I try to watch everyone🙂👍🏻

Just stumbled cross this video, thank you for the information! 😃

Love the community tanks! Ottos like to be in larger groups, might need a few more in there! In my 34 gal i have 6 and wish i had space for more!

Sir your education takes first priority. We all love & support you so no worries mate if you're not posting videos as before... . All one asks is for you to do your best & get your degree qualifications etc... . Ive a small request if you can share links of the lights & reverse Osmosis system both you & Nick utilizes in fishroom..... plecos seems camera shy but the cory are divas....lol.. Beautiful fishes Sir. Thank you for sharing. Keep up the great work both in fishes & uni....cheers

I was thinking about getting some panda corys for my black ram tank to help stir the sand up! Thanks for helping in solidifying that choice!

Interesting you mentioned Panda Cory. I was told they were not suited for a ram tank as they don’t like the higher temps! For that reason I went Sterbai 🙈

I just got my 2 pairs for albino cory and can’t deny how cute they are.

Great video. No need to apologize for not uploading, school and rest are far more important than videos.

If you're going to keep rams, the addition of tannens, to your water, is almost a necessity. I have fairly hard water, where I live, but the addition of boiled oak leaves, to the tank, has made all the difference. That, and the water temperature is kept at, or around, 82F. I keep my rams with an electric blue acara, a rainbow cichlid, and my gourami. There is absolutely zero tension in the tank, and all of my fish get along splendidly.

Hey Justin, another amazing video of course, but I came across one of your pairs on a website and Im moving to QLD Australia this December and the first stocking Im gonna do after my tanks are set up is getting one of your Blue ram pairs 🤣🤣 remember your future and career including uni is more important then making a couple more videos for us and getting burnt out lol u must feel real good that your rams are really starting to get out there😀😀😀

Justin thanks so much!! Your videos are amazing and i really appreciate them! If i have a breeding pair will the plecos eat the eggs? Thank you and take care!!

Great ideas for tank mates! I have panda corys, otocinclus, ember tetras and cpds with my rams. Everyone knows their place, but the corys do like to get right in front of the rams once in a while when feeding and wiggle their little butts in front of their face 😆

Awesome vid! Would love some advice. I just recently added fish to my 75L (well planted). I got 2 panda Cory’s, 1 bristle nose pleco and 8 rummy nose. Would 1/2 Germans be okay for a nice feature fish in this aquarium or will that be too much when everything is grown fully. Thanks for any advice!

This an old ish video, but would love to know your thoughts. I am about to get an aquarium, been a good 5yrs since I had one (I do have a small deck pond with a healthy self sustaining/breeding pop of white clouds haha). Anyway, want a 4foot. My stocking plan (of course getting it established) is, 1-2 pairs of GBRs/Dark night rams, 10 pacific blue eyes, maybe a few L397s or some pretty L number that can handle the heat, and I am thinking about getting a trio of fancy guppies, like blue metal lace snake skins to see if I can breed them true just naturally in the community tank. it will be a planted tank. do you think this is a good combo of fish. I am hoping to get some spontaneous breeding from some of the fish :)

Hello sir! I have some random questions; is there any chance of some ram fry surviving in a community tank? I have a mated pair in with panda garra and Pacific Blue eyes (I would recommend them as tank mates, I keep the rams at 82 which the pseudomugil seem fine with). Heavily planted, but still...

do you keep your GBR water temp higher around 82-84F? I assumed corys would think that's a litle too warm but I know they have a pretty wide range of water temp but the plecos I'm surprised are comfortable at that warmer temp.

Love sterbais. Beautiful strong and social.

The leaves are great but expensive is there anything else you could recommend any other way to get tannins other then leaves and bkg ?

As a man who teaches presentation skills at USC, I advise you to never start a video with an apology unless you’ve done something truly worthy of an apology. Thanks for the info on ram tank mates.

I like Threadfin rainbows for dither fish, rams ignore them and vice a versa 👍

Can all of these other fish thrive at the higher temperatures that the German blue rams enjoy? I thought most aquarium fish prefer 25-26 degrees while rams like 30 degrees.

What temperature do you keep Rams and Cory’s at?

Hi, that is awesome video. can you please teach me how to know male or female black ram?

Wow look at how black that one ram was. I've been looking for a solid black one.

How many Rams would you recommend for a 36 gallom bow front community tank?

how about soak the almond leaves first to help rid some of the tannins then put them in your tank for the same look of leaf litter but 1/2 less tannin color

Justin do you have any recommendations for long fin German blue rams on line?

I just got 4 juvenile rams/ 2 balloon belly, 2 German black. Is that too many for a 14g? If not can I add 8 ember or rummynose tetras?

Hi Justin, I'm Eros from Northern Italy. I love Ramirezi very much, your videos are very interesting and you are very nice (simpatico), I subscribed to your channel. Good luck for the university! I finished university in 1998 but the passion for fish and tank is never over and I hope it is the same for you. Ciao

I would love to breed the L134 Leopard frog plecos, they are a bucket list fish for me.

FYI Cabomba and Ambulia are 2 different plants that just look the same, might be related thought. Just saying.

will they do good in a serpae tetra commmunity?

How many rams can fit in a 20 g long ? Also would they be ok with a dwarf gourami?

Do you think I could keep a male and female ram in a fluval flex 15 gallon

Hey thanks for the video! How big is that tank?

Were you breeding rams with the Cory's in there? I have a pair of rams with 4 Cory's and a bristlenose. It's been 6 months and they will not mate, mate

Will the rams hurt my nerite snails?

Corys love 64 - 70F, and Rams 80 - 89F.. Not such a good match. They will live together, but conditions are not perfect for both :/

How bad is the aggression with all those rams in one tank ?

I'm looking I'm looking for a certain pair of fish they're called a queen this service apps they're from I believe Venezuela that area does anybody have any information on this this I've had the pair and they bred for me but I didn't get farther than that it was in this early 80s in the Bay area but now I don't do fish anymore but I would just love to see a video of a pair of Queen pronounced acquaintance service apps they don't have neck so they look kind of round-headed and they don't really have a neck they remind you of a ram but they're cut they're a little larger and not quite so particular as to water what happened to that species of fish

Can i put angelfish with rams?

Hey Justin where are you located thanks

how many liters do one angel fish need

how many liters do 3 discus need

I will NEVER buy another Bristlenose Pleco ever again! I had a couple of juveniles and couldn't believe the poop they produced. Massive amounts.

U re so cute 🙈
