I have added 3 angelfish about 4" to a 125g tank (lots of driftwood and rocks)which contains 1 5" Gold severum, 2 4" Green Severums a pair of nicaraguensis about 4"and a very small firemouth. There are also 6 congo tetras and 3 killifish as well as 3 clown loaches. The fish are doing real well together now. I am prepared to move the firemouth when he grows if it becomes aggressive. Do angelfish do well with severums? Nicaraguensis? The severums and nicaraguensis are the show fish and I do not want to move them. Does this sound like a workable setup? They look great together now.

nicaraguensis may get nippy. The firemouth will get aggresive real quick. I'd move him now.

Hm I had an angel with firemouths and nics and the angel stood its ground. The nics didn't go for the angels, and mainly were chasing each other. The firemouths dominated the tank and kept mostly everything together.
