I need advise on what I can keep with this species

[nvcichlids]

Ok, so I added some bumblebees into one of my vacant 20 gal L's. There are 8 of them in there for the colony along with a couple other odds and ends SA fish. My problem comes up here, I am going to be keeping Elassoma sp (either okefenokee or zonatum) in the 10 gal tank with the open top that I posted in another thread. It really only has about 6-7 gallons with a nice piece of driftwood, a pond plant that is growing out of the top, java moss, water sprite, water lettuce, duckweed etc. The tank has the bubble stone, and a the smallest fluival filter they make (internal filter) I was wondering if there is a small cat species that will live with them (they max out at 1.25-1.5"). That is where my delimma is

Does it have to be from the same continent, or will any catfish do?

any would be fine

Bumblebee's like it a bit warmer than is comfortable for the elassoma's.
also they can and do eat small fish, something that you don't want to happen.

Corydoras paleatus would be a perfect match
it's peaceful, it doesn't eat fish, it stays small and it's active during the day.
and it can and does just fine in unheated tanks.

Or try

Hara jerdoni

I would love to get some of those hara's, but I have NEVER seen any availble here. My lfs's said they haven't seen them on the order lists ever ( that goes for all hara's). Is there an easier way to find them? I will post a wanted in the wanted/forsale section. Thanks guys!
