can anyone help me. i need some info on a fish i can't seem to find any information on it anywhere its a Crown Ruby??? i heard its part of the cichlid group but i'm not sure. i want to know its temperment and anything anyone can give me on the fish it wold be greatly appreciated!!! :)
 
oh yeah i forgot to add...

oh and i would like to knpow what they can go with i have 2 blue gouramis 5 giant danios 2 tiger barbs 2 green tiger barbs 2 pictus catfish and an african dwarf frog. i saw a pic but no information on the fish i'd love to get them if they mesh with mine...
 
The only thing I can think of that comes close to that name would be the Ruby Clown Cichlid, also known as the Bolivian ram, or Microgeophagus altospinosa. If that's so, they're great fish that are very colorful and are really only testy when breeding, and even then they're pretty mild. They're appreciate soft, acidic water, but seem to be pretty adaptable. The tiger barbs may be a bit to active for them, but I'm sure they'd be ok. How big of a tank and do you know whether or not they're a cichlid?
 
the only thing i know is that they're name is crown ruby thats it. i have a 25 gallon aquarium. the reason i was asking als is because they got shipped to us where i work by accident i like them alot they are very beautiful but i have absolutly no info on them oh well i'll keep looking. did you have a pic of the ones you are talking about??? if you do post it and i'll tell you if they are the ones.
 
artaquatic.com has something called a "Crown Ruby Cichlid" but the site is currently down, so I can't gather any more info on them.
 
Voodoo is right, they are the bolivian ram......

they should be ok with the tiger barbs, but id suggest maybe another 2\3 to increasse the pack size, and limit any aggression aimed out of their group.........

you would be pushing it then with your stocking, need to maintain frequent partial water changes.......

hth
 
ok thanks thats all i needed to know oh well i 'll wait on getting them don't want to over stock i already got just to about my limit now.
