rainbowfish l134 dithers

Thinking of some dithers to add to my l134 colony.
One option might be praecox rainbows considering they also thrive in temperatures of 78-80 and they have smaller mouths than tetras so less of a risk to fry. Have anyone had experience with this pairing?

Also would oil catfish or pygmy corydoras do well with l134?

Hi, rainbows would be fine with L134, just ensure that the tank size is suitable for the adult size of the rainbows you plan to get.

Corys should also be ok, especially pygmy types.

A word of warning on woodcats, I know they are different types, but a few years back a
which I was trying to catch wedged itself into a cave my clown plec was in, it appeared to stab the clown plec with a pectoral fin, within a couple minutes the plec was dead! For this reason I'd avoid keeping plecs and woodcats together, especially ones which would compete for similar sized caves.

Good luck.
