I have two tanks - my new 75-gallon holds the meanies. I am morphing my 55- gallon into the peaceful tank. I want to add another "showy" fish to my mellow tank.
I am curious about Kribs. On the web, I have read contradictory things about their behavior.
Here is what I have in the 55-gallon now: 2 bristlenose cats (Ancistrus - one 7+years old and the other a few years old), 2 Farlowellas, 8 pink cories (aeneus), 3 red rainbows (1 mature male and a brand new pair of juvies), 5 mature rasboras, a couple of young platies and few khuli (look like robust earthworms) loaches.
Would Kribensis be a good fit here? Are they strict bottom dwellers, and if so, would they aggress against the cories?
A kind of unrelated note: I understand Kribs need caves, I am happy to add caves. Can I stick a little cave higher in the tank? By stick, I mean is there a good way to affix a cave up high on my wood? I think it would look cute if a fish actually used it. Would I use aquarium goo (does it work wet-on-wet?) or just a fastener of some sort?
