i have a salvini cichlid and I was wondering if they can be kept peacefully with corys. I want to get long fin albino corys.

Thanks.

Going to be hit or miss in my opinion. Could work in a large enough tank if you got a baby salvini and grew it up with the corys. Salvini's can be very aggressive though, it might just decide to kill them. Especially longfins, I wouldn't be that surprised if they got their fins torn off. No real way to know for sure.

I keep a pair in a 90g. Mean fish imo. The male is hyper aggressive only to be matched by the female during breeding. Male is about 5in. Female is about 3.5-4in. I don’t recommend mixing corys and Sals
