Thanks Ray.
I have a 55gal with a Super Red Serverum. It's young right now.

>This all depends on how long you intend to keep the fry in this tank with the parents, and what size you plan on rearing them to. You could keep the pair and their fry in a 10 gallon tank -- but not for very long. On average, a pair of German Blue Rams will have about 150 eggs/fry. If you plan on raising them up to a juvenile size of about an inch (2.56 cm) long, then you can't keep any more fry than about 32 of them unless you move them to a larger tank -- or destroy the balance of them at around 1/4" long.

>Considering that the parents will be about 2" (5 cm) each, totalling 4" of fish, this 36 gallon tank will support only another 32" of fish.

Rams, while small, are still cichlids (dwarf cichlids) and that means territorial by nature and the ability to get aggressive, in particular with others of their own species, especially if any of them form male/female pairs and begin to spawn. They are also very protective of their eggs/fry... which brings me to the next point. How you mix them male/female ratio also will make a difference.
