Not to sound contridictart, but you could squeeze in a pair...

Gold ram... Heart Heart. I personally think they are more pretty than the regular blue ones.

but are less forgiving than the Blues!

Seem to be doing me just fine as a beginner.

[Bebobb]

I was told that they would be fine. Well, It looks like he is going for the apistogramma. Thank you for telling me this, now I can inform new people to this fact.

I ment one pair in a 10 gallon not 2 pairs. I see how what I typed ccould have been confused. I ment two fish, not two pairs.

i think im going to have to get cockatoo apisto because my ph is a little acidic but not much and it says Apistogramma viejita need a ph of 5

 

[Bebobb]

They all have mostly the sma requirements. Good choice! I think they are pretty in breeding colors.

[Bebobb]

Yeah, even though I am in America, I know that is about 6-8 USD. I paid 12.99 USD for my ram.
