Will My Fish Kill Them?

[Captain Retardo]

I will soon hopefully get some kuhli loaches, but I have seen how small they are...Would my fish think of them as treats?

I have 2 Male Bolivian Rams-1.5 in (just learned that the one that I thought was a female is actually a male)
Harlequin Rasboras (I know they won't be a problem)
Cherry Barbs (" ")
6 Corydoras Trilineatus- 1 inch (Don't think they will be a problem either)

Mainly, I think the Rams might try to eat the kuhlis

Also, I wish to get a Dwarf Gourami at the same time as the kuhli loach purchase

thanks

Ive seen Kuhlis kept with Kribs and Rams and these Kuhlis were like 2" long and not very wide. Everyone was fine with them. It might differ though with different Rams or other Cihlids due to them being slightly different in personality.

how small will they be?


normally the rule "if it fits in its mouth then that where it will probably end up" applies.

My Bolivians are very nice and easy-going, and they don't fight for food or vigourously search for it.

The kuhlis will probably be like the size radar described, or a little bit bigger, probably bigger. but not by much
