rams are not reconmended if you are new to chiclets. They are very sensitive to water. When I started, I lost many. Ok.. more like 3. But thats like $30 loss. pretty pricey little fish. A Cichlet I would reconmend to you if you are new would be either the Convice or the Kribs. I'd prefer the Kribs since they are not as aggressive and are overall more colorful.

Heres how a Krib looks like.

Oops My bad. They are Afrian Cichlids. But a Cichlid is a cichlid.
