Are they compatible??

[BigHoss]

I've started a new 55g community tank and was wondering if GBR and Bolivian Rams are compatible together. I've already got 2 GBRs in the tank now but wanted to move my Bolivian ram into the same tank but don't want any issues. Thanks in advance for any help on this

I've seen it done but it can be a hit or miss sometimes.

Considering these are cichlids form the same genus, they may fight over floor space, but I think it could possibly be done in a tank that size

They require different temps, not a great idea. While they may be "ok". The higher temps gbr prefer will stress and weaken bolivians while the lower temps bolivians prefer will.do the same to.gbr.

Thanks for the replies. I decided against putting them together. Better safe than sorry.
