| This is starting to be fun this stie is the best one I have found so far I got to see the Apistos that the shop here in town gottoday and as with the Greman blue rams I got( that are now in my 60 ) they wanted to not sell them to me untill the morning. They A Njisseni and A Agassizi they are CEHCK RAISED AND THEY ARE VERY NICE. I will pick them up some time on Saturday. I aslo got some green cory cats that they have had for a while so they went into the 60. I was also on aquabid todya and noticed that they have some Taeniocara candidi onthe site under South American cichlids in case any of you that keep dwarf cichlids are interested . I am still waiting on the girl freind to get home so I can get my new camera as soon as I get some good pictures I will load them on the site. KEEP MORE DWARF CICHLDS. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS  |

| I have always kept corys with Apistos and not had any real problems unless the cichlids spawn then all hell breaks loss but most the time the corys learn to stay away from the pair |

| I have never been able to keep corys successfully with any cichlids....Rams do ok but Cichlids if they don't harrass the corys they stress them too much and they end up dying.

| Discus + Corys= good tank mates. I haven't had a problem with discus and corys. When I had my Boliv. rams they didn't bother the corys either. Maybe it was do to the size of the tank I kept them in. |

| That is a good point any cichlid can go from good citizen to killer in a very short time if a spawn is involed dwarf cichlids are real good parnets and are very protective of new broods. |

| Very true Mike. I kept some GBR's with cories a while back and had no problems. Two females so there was no spawning. |
