could this combination work? It would be silver streak ventralis and Cyprichromis leptosoma "Utinta"

I agree with Mike......I think it will work and look very cool but Featherfins can get nasty at times.

Good luck and if you set it up please post some pics.

Ventralis are some of the more nasty featherfins but I dont see any reason on why it wouldnt work.

Sounds like a solid combo. Just keep an eye on the Featherfins during courting.

it WILL work i've seen this combination on several occasions and the people had the setups running for 1-3yrs. I would however stick with the jumbo cyps like the tri-colors
