labrakitty Fish Addict Posts: 740 Kudos: 435 Votes: 9 Registered: 12-Nov-2004	What about: 2 angelfish-you wanted them. 12-15 rummy nose or cardinal tetras-they look amazing in big schools. 8 corys (whatever type you like)-cute little bottom dwellers. 1 bristle nose catfish - for algae. 6-8 Harlequin rasboras or other largish tetras (not neons)-adds more colour. Do you like that?

Hoa dude_dude Mega Fish Posts: 957 Kudos: 888 Votes: 72 Registered: 28-Dec-2004	personally i would go with 2 angels (platinums are awsome) 6 rummys 6 cardinals 8 cories 1 bn for algea with a heavily planted tank itll be awsome. I dont really get algea & I might just get 10 rummies instead of carinals,& if my angels have fry i'll keep the fry in there 4 a little while.(then probably sell them)so probably no bn Last edited by dude_dude at 25-Feb-2005 02:11

labrakitty Fish Addict Posts: 740 Kudos: 435 Votes: 9 Registered: 12-Nov-2004	Serpae tetras are way to nippy for Angelfish, they woud rip them to bits. They are still nippy even if you keep them in big groups. I would go with something more like lemon or bleeding heart or diamond. Or even cardinals. Peppermint catfish are fine they are nearly the same as bristle nose but not quite as hardy.

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	or the fact that angel become highly territorial when they are breeding, so they might attack another fish in the tank. If you go livebearers (you almost had the spelling) don't plan on keeping the fry as the angels would love this delicious little treatNot that I am one to not keep guppies If you are set on the Angels then get them. I don't know for sure what I am set on, except I have to say you have to get a nice school of corry cats...I'm going with abt 10 spotted corry cats myself.

Calilasseia Ultimate Fish Guru Panda Funster Posts: 5496 Kudos: 2828 Votes: 731 Registered: 10-Feb-2003	Alternatively, you could make it an angel species tank, and have fewer problems when the angels get around to spawning Panda Catfish fan and keeper/breeder since Christmas 2002

niggit Fish Addict Posts: 631 Kudos: 282 Votes: 0 Registered: 29-Jan-2003	i usually suggest for people to pick out one or two types of fish they really want to have, then build a community around them. so, if angels are your priority, you could consider a large group of cardinals (or other largeish tetra), a few dwarf cichlids (ie: bolivian or blue or gold rams), and a group of cory catfish. it's pretty typical, but nothing beats an authentic amazonian setup!
