Fire Gold Angelfin Ram

Care requirements

• Minimum tank 24 × 12 in (60 × 30 cm) or larger.
• Adult size 1.6 in (40 mm), excluding the tail
• Temperature 81–84°F (27–29°C)
• pH 6.5–7

Housing & compatibility

Give rams a quiet patch of bottom to claim. In a larger tank, choose calm midwater fish that share their temperature needs and leave extra space for a breeding pair.

Diet

Give them their own serving of small sinking cichlid food. Try Hikari Vibra Bites Baby if they take it, and rotate in Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Daphnia or small live foods.

Species notes

This gold ram is sold as an angelfin variety. Give the fins space and choose tankmates that won’t nip them.
