Just wondering if featherfins and pictus cats can cohabitate. Looking into getting a big tank for pictus and was wondering if could keep them and featherfins in a tank together since featherfins can be terrotorial?
 
We have 2 pictus and a featherfin in a 75g with no problem.

The only fish the featherfin really goes after are the common plecos. What really makes it work, I think, is that the featherfin is HUGE and we have hiding spots that the pictus can get into but Nelson can't (named after the bully on The Simpsons ;) )
 
yeah, that seems to be kind of how it is with mine. Strangely though the pictus run off the smaller featherfin but haul butt behind the fake plant and into their cave if JUMBO comes along.

That and they really don't like the dempsey coming over to say hello.
