Yes rams are chiclids from South America.

I would not probably mix the two together.

I probably wouldn't. Rams aren't known to be psychotic like other cichlids but you might have problems with a betta.

i've been looking and reading files in the internet and i came up with this stocklist:

15 zebra danios
12 cardinal tetras
10 rosy barbs

and i guess some few bottom dwellers.

is this stocklist ok? can i still add more?

I would not put the danios in with the others listed.

Zebra Danios are very very very very very very active compared to cardinals and rosey barbs.

I would lean one way or the other with this list.

I wouldn't do zebras with any of these fish.

Way to hyper.

I would consider dropping them from any stock list entirely if you would like tetras or angels.

i cycled my tank with danios that's why i'm building a stocklist around them cause i think i have gotten a bit attached to them. lol
