	Angels growing like weeds
Nick Fish Addict 33 Posts: 553 Kudos: 668 Votes: 509 Registered: 09-Aug-2004	I bought my 2 Angels about a month and a half ago and they have gotten huge! When I bought them they were approx. 1 1/2 inches top to bottom and now they are about 3 1/2 inches....WHOA! Here's a pic! *Jessnick attached this image:*

I just bought myself two angels about a week and a half ago that are around 1 1/2" from top to bottom. Have your angels shown any aggression towards the smaller fish as they they've grown? I have lots of smaller fish in with mine in my 75G and so far so good. They don't even go after the abundance of guppy fry I have (will anything eat these!!?? ). They are pretty, BTW.. love the black one.

Neon Tetras might not be the best tankmate for Angels as they are the Angels natural food. However I just added a school of corys, and you can tell that the Angels have established that it's their tank

If they have space where to grow up, they'll get big in a few months. 2 of mine breeded & all of them seam quite happy. Great looking tank. Do you have a full tank picture & what do you have in it? http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.deathbydyeing.org/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
