Will rams still breed?

[colematthewmalaka]

Hey, I'm getting rid of my ramirez cichlids and replacing them with new ones. I was wondering if they're in my amazon aquarium with other fish will they still spawn?

with other fish i cant imagine them lasting too long after hatching before getting eaten. i have a community tank and mine spawn but they get eaten if i dont take them out.

I agree. The other fish will eat either the eggs, or the fry if the eggs last long enough to hatch. I used to have an apistogramma steindachneri pair in a 55 gallon community that spawned a few times... sadly, none of the fry ever made it.
