I will be setting up my four foot tank again soon and well I have 3 six inch Kissing Gouramis that will be going into this tank. Also a few Clown Loaches (6 - 12) as well as a few bistlenose catfish.

I am wondering if I can possibly put in a single Angel fish or do they need to be in groups? I had 3 in this tank once and they beat each other up and so got rid of them.

If not a single or a pair what other fish that will be OK? I have another tank that has other fish (neons, guppies, kuhli loaches, cory's) so was thinking of other fish then these. Maybe Guppies as they are pretty cool.

Also if I was to breed the guppies will they survive as fry in the bigger tank? I knowif Angels were present that they would eat them. That I guess can be a good control fish that I can feed the baby ones that I am not needing to keep numbers in control?

Are there other fish that could be put int he four foot tank that would also like live guppy fry to eat?

How large is this 4 foot tank?

A few Clown Loaches (6 - 12) in a 4 foot tank......... I think you need a bigger tank for all those Clown Loaches.
