I Know I'm probably going to get shot for asking this but how do you think a bunch of adult Bolivian Rams would go in a 310lt moderately planted and heavily wooded tank with other tank mates the likes of which are a fairly peaceful 10cm Flowerhorn, a very docile 15cm Geophagus Surenimensis and two Clown Loaches?

There are plenty of places for them to hide if need be.

I really would like BRs in this particular tank but obviously don't want to jeopardize them either.

Thoughts?

Even though it's a very big tank, I still say no.

Flowerhorns get massive, about a foot long, and although cute when they are little, they are highly aggressive and territorial and will kill all those peaceful to semi-aggressive fish.

What do you mean by "a bunch" of bolivian rams? If you have too many there could be some pairs and it could get kinda nasty between them.

Not sure about the geophagus.

I don't think the clown loach should be in there, only because they get a foot long and need a school of five IMO. But that's just me.


Just my 2 cents.
 
I new it was a long shot. Thanks for your advise.
