Try 3. If you're lucky a breeding pair will form and the 3rd fish will act
as a target fish, strengthening the bond between the mated pair. This will
also take some pressure off the female as most of the aggression will be
towards the target fish.

I think the German Ram is the original Ram minus all the fancy fins, colours
etc. 'Breeding'.

They like softer water, loads of plants. Provide some smooth flat stones for
them to spawn on. A little higher than usual temps. Thats all I can think of
for now. HTH.
