Mixing Rams?

[evilchild]

i got two golden rams in my tank can i put some blue rams in there to or would this be a problem with fighting?

Glod ram's are basically the albino version of blue ram's. They are exactly the same( everthing is diffrent, but you know what i mean!). They will breed together, eat together, etc. You might want to re-arrange your tank thouhg as there will probably be some fightin!

Acutally, Gold rams are a different species. They are not albinos of some other species. You should have no problems keeping them together, granted you have a larger tank. They will not interbreed, although as (almost) always, the males will likely fight.

Are you sure about this, I've read that they are just a captive bred colour morph of the blue ram (Mikrogeophagus ramirezi). Though I agree they are not albinos, I think the are xanthanistic.
