My friend might be buying my 55 Gallon and the fish she wanted were as follows to stay with the tank:

2 albino cory cats
3 emerald corys
1 chocolate pleco

I'm wondering what cichlids she could put in this tank that wont harass those bottom feeders?

HELP

Angels will be fine. I have plecos and corys with mine and no problems at all.

Buy a half dozen angels and you should get at least one breeding pair.

There are a handful of fish you could add: severums, firemouths, various dwarves, uarus, discus, the list goes on...

Basically any cichlid would work that tends to stay at the top of the tank. I even have kribs with cories in my 55 and its working out.
