It's a gamble, you might end up with a tolerent pair or you could end up with a very territorial pair that could cause problems for the other fish, especially the corys since they share the bottom with the cichlids. Not the definate answer you were looking for, but cichlids are never black and white.

I have had limited results with most bottom feeders kept with kribs.
cories, brochis and khulies. I currently have 5 botia rostrata in my my pair and they seem to tollerate them, barely. |
