Can nz least killifish live and thrive with white cloud minnows?

[ryanbuhler 0]

Hey there I have an outdoor 20gallon tank with 8 white cloud minnows 

and I was wondering if I could find some nz killifish and add them in there?

it is very hard to find a cold water fish that won’t eat white cloud minnows.

the temp drops to possibly 5 degrees c. 
and Will they eat my minnows? 
thankyou!

killifish would not be happy in a cold water thank. White cloud minnows are named after the white cloud mountains in China where it can get pretty cold,. Killis come from water a lot warmer than that,. You are likely to have problems with velvet --particularly with Nothobrancius

Sorry like the nz ones that are in nz stream etc

NZ has no native killifish, there are the invasive Gambusia in some waterways that loo like guppies

Ok thanks but can they go in there?

gambusia are nasty by nature and would probably give the white clouds a hard time. They cannot be legally bred either, and since they are live bearers---not easy to not breed.
