	angelfish compatibility?
LadyInBlue04 Fingerling Posts: 33 Kudos: 17 Votes: 0 Registered: 23-Jun-2004	i have a fairly established 30 g aquarium, and since a few of my fish passed on, it's been a bit boring. all my fish are great and i love them to bits and well i was hoping to add a different fish to the mix. i have some platies all female although some of them are still pregnant, 2 honey gouramis (female), 1 neon dwarf gourmais (male), 6 corys (three-lined) and 6 harliquin rasaboa's. i was thinking about getting a pair of angel's, although i'm not sure if they would be compatible with my already existing fish. any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

Perhaps you could add more harlies, but other than that, I wouldn't add anything. Angels get pretty big. They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

But I do agree that adding angels will make you overstocked. They're pretty deep-bodied fish, so they have a little more bioload for their length then torpedo-shaped fish like your rasboras... ><>

I wouldn't go with angels, they get too big for a 30g IMO, id get a pair of dwarf cichlids like bolivain rams instead cfd [span class="edited"][Edited by catfish_dude 2004-08-09 04:05][/span] -------------------------- Billy was a scientist, Billy is no more.
