Re: safe catfish

["D & S Kinyon" <dkinyon@shentel.net>]

I have to agree with big John. I don't want to add fuel to any pending
disagreement, but I've kept and bred a lot of Apistogramma with Corydoras in
the tanks. It all depends on the fish (as John says, the dwarf Cory species
are the best). It also works very well to raise Apisto fry and Cory fry
together, after the mother apisto has left her brood. True, they do compete
for the same food, but if there's enough being fed, the catfish will eat
what the cichlids leave, and keep the water from fouling.

Take Care
