Hi there

I speak from experience when I say that you should probably not mix the keyholes and curviceps in the same tank. If you land up getting pairs, they might not get along too well. Also, if you get a pair or curviceps, they can be downright vicious when spawning.

Curviceps are lovely, and I love mine, but nothing prepared me for what the male was like when they had fry to look after.

I still don't know what the keyholes are like with fry, as I have not had a successful spawning.

Even if going with the keyholes, you would need to avoid the guppies I think. They can chase other fish a bit when they are spawning and guppies might not be fast enough to move out of the way.

I have found that keyholes are more show than anything, but better to be safe I think. Most of the tetras should be ok with them.
