How tall is the tank? Angels prefer a tank that is at least 18 inches tall. Also, once the angel gets bigger, he may try to snack on the guppies, and the rainbow fish may nip their fins, so you may want to rethink them. I would also be hesitant to add another school of fish. You have a decently stocked tank.

Hoping that there must be a word for everything I mean...

The only thing I'd worry about is having those rainbows. Boesemani rainbows get a good 4-5 inches long, and are schooling. From what I've seen of them, they are pretty active too. I would leave those out.


They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes,
They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver,
So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.
