Can Cory catfish be in the same tank with glo fish?

Water parameters: Both species thrive in similar water conditions. Cory catfish prefer slightly acidic water with a pH between 6.5 and 7.5, while GloFish can tolerate a slightly wider pH range of 6.5 to 8.0. The ideal water temperature for cory catfish is between 72-78°F (22-26°C), while GloFish can tolerate a range of 65-82°F (18-28°C).

Temperament: Cory catfish and GloFish are both generally peaceful and non-aggressive species, making them compatible tankmates. Cory catfish are known for their scavenging behavior and often spend their time at the bottom of the tank, while GloFish are more active swimmers that enjoy exploring the middle and upper levels of the tank.

Habitat: Cory catfish appreciate having hiding places such as caves, driftwood, or dense plants in the aquarium, which can also provide security for GloFish during the day or while sleeping. Both species also appreciate having live plants in the tank for grazing and added oxygenation.

Food: Cory catfish are omnivores and have a varied diet consisting of algae, small invertebrates, and sinking pellets. GloFish are typically fed commercial fish food flakes or pellets designed for tropical fish. Both species can be fed together without issues.

By maintaining suitable water parameters and providing enough hiding spaces and plants, you can successfully keep Cory catfish and GloFish together in a harmonious community aquarium. Always observe your fish for any signs of stress or aggression to adjust their housing arrangements if necessary.
