Multipuctatus housing

I have some multipuctatus that I would like to house in a 55g with some Cyprichromis leptosomas a free swimming fish from Tanganyika. This is a breeding group and I don't want the catfish to stop them from breeding. However, they are a pure open water breeder with females dropping eggs and picking them up all at the top of the tank. Any problems with this?

Shouldn't be a problem. I have kept them together. With peacocks. Got spawns from all of them....cats from peacocks. Cyps had no problems.
