	Angel Fish Setup?
mattmccready Small Fry Posts: 5 Kudos: 3 Votes: 0 Registered: 02-Nov-2006	Hi guys, I have an Angelfish but am unsure of what kind of plants/decor would benefit it best. Its a 4ft tank and other tankmates are: 3 Silver dollars 3 Red finned black shark 2 Pearl Gouramis 8 Columbian Red Fin Tetras 1 Bristlenose 1 Mega-clown (baby) 1 LDA19 So bear in mind that the Silver Dollars munch on alot of the plants I have. Any suggestions would be great.

Eventually they will decide each other must go, and you will end up with only 1 remaining, or none,they are quite capable of killing each other and all dying in a battle. Columbian tetras may nip the Angels fins - they can be quite nippy I hear. Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames

He was getting a little too boisterous about 3 months ago so i moved him to a spare tank i had back then. He sulked for 2 weeks until i put him back. Ever since he has been fine. They get on well together and there is lots of hiding places. But I will keep an eye on them. They are all fully grown so maybe they have gotten use to eachother? The Angel keeps them all in line.
