I am a newbie on this site so I am not sure if I am posting this in the right section. Anyways I have just setup a new tank and have been slowly been adding fish to it. I am planning later on to add a male/female pair of GBR's once the tank has established and I have added all the fish I will add besides them. Ik that the fish will be compatible, but I am up in the air about the pH for the German Blue Rams. Ik they like a pH of 6.0 to 7.0 but I have seen that some people just say they acclimate them slowly to their water and the fish are fine. I have a stable 7.4 pH I have monitored it and it doesn't fluctuate. I was wondering as long as I acclimate the German Blue Rams slowly and that the pH doesn't fluctuate and stays at 7.4 will they be ok?
 
They should be fine , make sure to pick good stock and keep the water pristine. They're great fish, can be a short lived pet due to poor breeding though..

As brookster points out above the biggest issue is finding good quality stock to begin with. I would recommend asking your LFS how long they had the fish and ensure they have been there for at least two weeks and are still looking healthy.
