Cold Water

Are there any cats that you can keep in a cold water tank?

I have a well filtered tank with very stable water that runs at about 21C (70F).

I am getting a tropical tank soonish (just starting a new job so got to wait a few months for the money situation to sort itself out!) which will be mainly for cats but i don't want to wait!

Your help is greatly appriciated.

try these

bronze corys, peppered cory,
. moth cats will do (erethistidae species)

i am sure others will give you alternatives also

Sure. Catfishes that live in mountain streams (such as bulldog plecos, Chaetostoma sp.) would do well in a cooler setup like yours.

Be sure to keep the water well-oxygenated.
