What size tank? And what substrate?

Now my first thought was that you're trolling, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt:

Rams shouldn't be in a tank that small - they shouldn't be in anything less than 65L, so you need a bigger tank or to look at rehoming them.

its a 190ltr tank with sand.

What kind of fish do you like?

If you're looking for a centrepiece fish it might be a little hard as many will gobble up your other species.

An angelfish might leave the cardinals alone.

I've had an angel munch on the cardinals before but there is someone on here (probably many more but I only know of one) who have kept both successfully.

Its all depends on your taste, what fish do you like?

Is it just me or have we discussed the stocking of your tank about a dozen times already?

This forum sends me around in circles i swear.
