The tank they are in currently is kept at 24 so no worries there.

I currently have them in a killifish only tank, but did have them with 7 very active albino cories for a couple of weeks until I moved the cories to the bigger tank. They were fine with the cories, but I don't know much about keyhole cichlids - are they likely to eat small fish? These are very small - no more than about an inch long and very slim with it.

I only got them as I'd been admiring lampeyes in the lfs, and the guy said if I thought they were good, I should check out the clowns. He was so enthusiastic about them that I ended up buying 6 of the clowns there and then. However I went back and bought 6 lampeyes a week later, and they are much my favourite, so I want to sell on the clowns and up the lampeyes to 12.

They do spend a fair amount of time floating on the surface, but since the lampeyes went in and cories came out they been exploring all areas of the tank. At the lfs, they had about 60 odd, all bar a few were on the surface.

They are very pretty fish, with a bright neon green/blue eye, but my personal preference is for the lampeyes. They can jump though - I lost one during their first water change as I didn't notice it escape
