Technically, a 2 gallon tank for one Cory cat, 4 gallon tank for two Cory cats, and so on. The rule is one gallon per one inch of fish and Cory cats can grow to two inches, although the bigger tank the better. I would DEFINITELY not recommend a 2 gallon tank with one Cory cat. They like to be in groups and will be happier and healthier.

Can Cory catfish be in the same tank with glo fish?
Yes. Neither fish have any special needs that would interfere with the other. They both need 1 gallon of water per 1 inch of body length, they both need a cycled filter running 24/7, they both need to have 50% of their water changed weekly and they both need a water temperature of around 75F.
Can a koi fish live in the same tank as a catfish?
It depends on the catfish. if it is a small catfish ( 1-5 inches) sometimes the angelfish will try to eat it. if it is a medium sized catfish (6-9inches) you will be fine. BUT if you get a large catfish (10 inches and over) it will terrorize your angelfish by nipping at the angelfishes fins and if big enough will eat it. some of the catfish you can mix is a Cory catfish, Redtail catfish, upside down catfish and rubber lip catfish but that is all. Another thing is you should get the fish when they are young because angelfish are territorial. one last thing is that to mix the two fish you should get a tank 25 gallons or over or they will be too crammed and die even though 25 gallons is pretty large angelfish can grow up to 10 inches and all of the catfish that can mix can grow up to 7 inches

Are cichlids compatible with catfish?
There are so very many different species of fish known as 'catfish' that it is impossible to give you an answer. Please say which species of catfish you are asking about. they are channel catfish The channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) could well be one of those fish that are very hard to keep with other species. The main reasons for this are twofold. First they are voracious eaters of anything edible, living or dead, so you would need to make sure that whatever species of fish you put with them was considerably larger than the catfish to avoid it being eaten and secondly you would need a larger tank than normal to house the catfish because they grow so very big. 20 kgs is not unusual for a channel catfish and finding another species that can live successfully alongside something that large would be very difficult. The answer to your question therefore is:- I don't know of any species of fish I could recommend as being compatible with channel catfish. Sorry.

Is this tank lineup okay in a 32 gallon fish tank 2 angelfish 11 silvertip tetras 1 yoyo loach 3 julii Cory catfish 1 Chinese algae eater and 2 neon blue dwarf gouramis Add shrimp or frog crab?
For the 32 gallon fish tank, a general rule of thumb is one fish per gallon. The size of your fish makes a big difference to. The bigger the fish the more room its going to need. Your tank sounds a little crowded. I hope that helped you out.
