We determine the maximum dimension of the Lie algebra of inheriting conformal Killing vectors in perfect fluid space–times. For the case of conformally flat space–times the maximum dimension is eight and for the case of nonconformally flat space–times the maximum dimension is found to be five. We illustrate each case with examples.
