Would Angels Go With German Rams?

as the title says

would i have happy fish or dead fish? lol

Depends on the tank size mate, german blue rams will need soft acidic water also.

its a 60l bowed front. only talking 3 or 4 angels an 2 rams like

jus wondered if they would be compatible

A bow-fronted 60l is far too small for Angelfish, they need a deep tank (>45cm of actual water, excluding substrate and air).

To be honest, I would not be comfortable keeping Rams in there either, becase the Rams will do better with some "ditherfish" and a 60cm long tank does not give the dithers much space to escape from the Rams once there are protecting fry. It might work for some Laetacara and a hareem of Beckford Pencilfish (again, having seen my alpha male N. beckfordi chase the submissive male in their group of 6 in my 620T, I would not want 2 males in a small tank... The whole group is doing much better in my 48x122x15 for the last two weeks).

Everyone has different budgets and space for tanks, but being a "say what you meean and mean what you say" kind of person, I cannot help but feel you have rushed this second tank purchase without having a good think about what fish you want and what the requirements are of said fish.

its mainly as a spare for the fry, i was thinking of putting the smaller one upstairs but i might just put the 60 in the conservatory and the 90 upstairs, downside with the conservatory is the constant light = algea and high water temps

i deffo needed a second tank as i was at the point where i had to give fry away / flush them / get another tank

id given as much away as i could, dont no anybody else with a tank that wanted them so was left with no other choice than to buy a second tank which isnt really a huge bad thing as i enjoy the lookin after fish and keeping them, watching them and the plants grow etc

i appreciate the comments, im the same, say what i think regardless lol. the tank hasnt even arrived yet, just toying with ideas for it at the moment as to what i wanna do, etc
