![]() To ease that out, here comes a brief review of each of the ram cichlid types. They definitely make amazing pets, so it is up to you to simply choose your favorite version. And who would not like to own pets like these?Īlong with great looks and simple maintenance, these peculiar creatures require no huge tanks and no complicated diet. Indeed, these fish have just two types among the family which can be found in the wild, while all others have been captively bred for years, to obtain such fascinating species with happy colors and friendly temperaments. These fish are amazingly suitable both for inexperienced keepers who wish to house hardy pets as well as for experienced ones who simply want some more splashes of color around their tanks. ![]() We will leave the competitive discus picture to the “experts” on YouTube and ONLY talk about decorative discus here-in.Cichlids are generally quite popular fish pets nowadays, and ram cichlids are certainly among the top choices ever. This typically doesn’t work! One will typically have the least problems with discus if one does either an ultraclean competitive approach or an ultrafiltered decorative approach. It requires so much attention that everyone ends up slacking off and only doing the vacuuming, cleaning and water changes every week or so. The problem with the “competitive” approach is a matter of time. This is not needed if one is only wanting to grow reasonably sized, healthy, colorful discus in a decorative aquarium. So many well meaning but ill-informed individuals on social media (and YouTube video makers!) recommend high temperatures, bare bottom tanks, and 50% water changes with vacuuming every day as “essential” for ALL discus.
