HN1 said:Yes, it is. Many reasons.... pH, hardness, diets, aggressiveness, etc. Rams have no business and won't survive long at all in a rift tank.

I know two other people who have more mature and greater number of malawis and the frontosa s are doing great… they re actually funny enough their favourite fish. I think your over thinking the problem and they ll be fine. Throw them in the tank and it ll be ok. Lol.
Or they might be eaten alive
