Black Angel fish
and various other kinds of Angel Fish
German Blue Ram

I personally wouln't mix the angels with sevs. But my angel tank is pretty much species only.

I would agree with Bob unless you're starting them off as juvies together.

gourami and angels are also known not to get along.

My green severum is bigger than it's 2 tank buddies, they are a ctenopoma leopard and a geophagus surinamensis. I had the severum for awhile then I got the leopard fish and finally the geo. All three have been great together.

What is the size of the tank?

Severums do well with numerous other South American cichlids like chocolate cichlids and blue acaras. My severum has both of those as tankmates as well as Geo. surinamensis, Red hump Eartheater, and a Bujurquina vittata

severum shoudl be fine with angels if the angels are big enough when they are introduced.

wouldnt go with rams. severum just get SO much bigger than rams do.

kissing gouramis get to a foot long and can by pushy with other fish, but if you ahve enough space there shoudlnt be to much of a problem. they are truly best for a specimine tank.

festivum and fire mouths are both good choices, but again, if they are big enough.
