So yesterday I picked up a male and female L183 (Starlight) pair. I was planning on keeping them in a 20L that i use as a grow out tank. Got a nice piece of driftwood...now my mind stats thinking. A little sand, some plants, a couple rams. :o So, would a pair of rams and that pair of plecos work in a 20L. Id like to throw some basic and hardy live plants in there too. Thoughts?
No Blair, I'm not going to go on a New World binge!!!

if you want your pleco it bred it won't work the ram will eat/kill the fry

Like Jenna said, I don't think they'll breed together, because of rams eating pleco eggs or vice versa, but I don't think they'd bother each other aside from that (the rams and the plecos).

I need to find some of those caves...

too bad.... I'd really like to see you fully enjoy the hobby. :P Especially since Rams are feeder fish IMO. ;)
