Featherfin Catfish With Other Catfish

Hay guys,
my tank is stocked with what i have in my signature and im wondering about adding another scavenger type catfish but ive herd that featherfin catfish can be territorial to other bottem dwellers. maybe a school of 3 Corys, or 2-3 pakistani loaches ? they have to be able to take a couple of hard hits every now and then from my male firemouth, he is so aggressive lol he rams the glass when i walk up to the tank and hes only 2 inches + he never backs dow to my 4 inch pair of jewels and he makes them look silly. so they need to be armered or to fast for him.
thanks for any ideas

p.s no pictus catfish please, there $40 + dollars for a 4 inch won over here

Ya watch out, they will get aggresive with others but mine is cool with my corys, just provide pleth of hiding places. I put some CAE in my tank along time ago and they liked to invade his little( it's a no wonder he poops alot so there is probably a gold mine of algae) well he attacked one and it died afterwards.

Mine is fine with corys and clownloaches and other bottom dwellers. I think as long as their territory isnt compromised that they are ok.

They are very cool fish but they get rather large. http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog...species_id=121
