Is it okay to put Cory cats in my cichlid tank?

Answer by  ladybud (1069)

In my experience cory cats do not get along with cichlids. Cichlids are very aggressive and territorial. My cichlids killed all my cory cats and algae eaters. They killed all my cichlids but the african variety. I started with 15 and only have 4 left. I guess they only like their own kind.

I don't think that it is okay to put these cats into the cichlid tank. Also, they do thrive into cool and warm temperatures so it is your choice. You can test it and see.

It is not okay to put a Cory cat in with a cichlid because the Cory is a very aggresive fish.

Cichlids are known to be an agressive fish and should usually be with fish from the same region but The Cory cat is a very peaceful fish and should do well with any other breed.
