Cories W/ Clown Loaches?

[Amunet]

I was reading on another site about clown loaches & plants and came across a couple of posts saying that their clowns pestered the cories that were in the tank w/ them.
Does anyone know if this is something to worry about?
I want to put the current cories that we have in to the 125gal tank along with a bunch more of them (would love to get at least 4-6 more of each species)... and we will be getting hopefully around 5 or 6 clown loaches.

So yeah, any info would be great!

heya!

clowns and cories should be fine! i havent had any problems with them to be honest clowns are pretty active fish! they tear up some of my plants! but love em.
jus maybe make a small coconut cave for the cories to live in they love their own little dark hiding place! they might even share it with the clowns

Clowns and Corys are fine together.

I have Pandas, Trillis, Melanistius, Adolfoi and Napoensis all in with my Clowns and they all play together just fine, even cuddling up at times!!!

Hi Amunet

I don't like the idea of keeping corys with clown loaches because they are fast growing and active fish, that occupy the same space as corys do. Corys are river fish that need space and room to swim freely. Unless you have a very big tank, they will not have this freedom.

It's sad to think of any cory spending his life cowering in a cave. Check this out:
