Black Ram Cichlid

Black Ram Cichlids are highly sought after variants of South American rams that often retail at much higher cost than the more common blue and Bolivian variants. Bearing a dark black frontage which makes the other colours and patterning more striking, the Black Ram Cichlid is a firm favourite amongst hobbyists.

Features
Approx. purchase size: 1-2" (small)
Maximum size: 3"
Origin: Venezuela and Colombia, South America
Scientific Name: Mikrogeophagus ramirezi (Black variant)
Ideal number kept together: 1+

Water conditions
pH: 5.5-7.0
Temperature: 25–30 °C
Minimum recommended tank size: 60 litres

Ease of care
Moderate. Black Ram Cichlids can be territorial, especially during breeding.

Diet
Omnivore - The main food we recommend would be tropical fish flake and small algae-based pellets. Mixing in some live or frozen brineshrimp, or other fresh alternatives can help enhance their health.
