What is the PH Do you keep Apistogramma at and what is the Temperature Do you keep them at and can you keep them with Blue Ram can you help me with this

[@memeboi6017]

you could definitely keep some species with rams, apistogramma generally like ph from 6.0 - 7.0 though borellii can tolerate up to 8.2, apistos like it in the mid seventies at least my research suggests (never kept them myself, just research) though it depends on species and many could definitely tolerate the low 80's that German Blue Rams like, though they may compete for floor space with the rams, so definitely keep them in a 20 gal at least, if together with rams.
Overall, a grouping that is pretty risky but possible

Gbr like a very warm tank so I wouldn't keep them together.

What temperature do you recommend?

[@mgrootjans7051]

Keep the temperature average 25*celcius. But to trigger them to breed raise the temp to 27-28*celcius. This way you simulate the dry season where the temperatures rise and the apistos spawn
