	Fish Compatible with Angelfish
jettrscga Small Fry Posts: 13 Kudos: 5 Votes: 0 Registered: 10-Mar-2006	I'm new to this website and I'm about to start a 20 gallon tank and I really want an angelfish but I'm not sure what fish would be compatible with an angelfish. If anyone knows, I would also like to know how many gallons angelfish take up in a 20 gallon tank. I really don't want to get a fish that is crammed with way too many other fish. Thanks

They grow tall, so need a tall tank. I wouldn't put one in a 20g. Most people say they need a tank atleast 18 inches tall (which would be a min. of 29g tall tank). If you were to get a bigger tank, there are many fish that are compatible with angels. Most tetras, rasboras, cories, loaches, and rams are good to keep with angels. I wouldn't put them with neon tetras though. They are the angels natural prey in the wild, and while it has been successfully done, I wouldn't try to keep the 2 together. *Kristin*
