No, romaine lettuce is good for rabbits, but too much of it can lead to illness. When you serve romaine lettuce or any plant to a rabbit, wash it well and remove any rotten bits and any white/light-coloured bits. Only the dark-coloured parts of the leaves are good for rabbits: the light-coloured bits have little nutritional value, and they can lead to illness (like diarrhea). Romaine and other dark-coloured lettuces (like red leaf, green leaf, mesclun mix) can be incorporated into the rabbit's "salad" but, because too much can lead to illness, you should rotate what kinds of plants you put in the salad: that way, you don't over-feed too much of any one kind of plant.

What kinds of lettuce can rabbits not eat?

Just like humans, different rabbits have different taste preferences. The only way to know what type of foods one rabbit prefers is to observe her reactions when you feed it to her. Not all lettuces are healthy for rabbits. Avoid white/light-coloured varieties entirely (like iceberg and romaine hearts) because these are low in nutritional value for rabbits, and can lead to illness (like diarrhea). Dark-coloured lettuces (like fully-grown romaine, red leaf, green leaf) are healthy in moderation: they can be included in the rabbit's "salad" but they shouldn't be fed every day. See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet.
