Could I get a few Rams??

[lovemybarbs]

I don't know which kind yet. Are they mean?? See my info. I have mainly barbs.

I'd go with Bolivian Rams. They are more hardy than GBR's. And they will do fine with your setup, and no, they are not mean.

My mother told me I need more color in my tank.

Not mean at all, quite peaceful actually. You should be fine. Just keep water quality pristine as they do enjoy very good water quality.

And if you want color, how about apistos? They are peaceful too....

No kidding. She doesn't get it. Rams are the closest I can think of.

I didn't think I could have a cichlid either.

Discus?

i didnt realize apistos were so colorful? are they fragile like GBRs?

 

[Lonewolfblue]

Apistos are more hardy than GBR's. They are like the Bolivians, where you need to keep good conditions, but not pristine like the GBR's. But the better the water, the happier the fish will be.

If you are looking for color, what about Gourami's? My Neon Blue and Sunset dwarfs afe stunningly colorful, as well as my full sized blue and gold ones. Rainbows are also extremely colorful. My Bosemani's are outstanding.

Rainbowfish are an excellent choice. Very colorful, and full of activity.
