they will be fine in your 120. They might tear up some stargrass though. There are also EB nannacara. looks very similar but samller and wont mess with the stargrass. Laetacara would also work just fine.

Also if you get EBAs and want them to get along with your plants, don’t get a pair or get them all the same gender otherwise they will rip plants like anubias.
Hey

Do they school often? My rams never hung together like that when I had the 4. They are not considered a schooling cichlid though right? Like not more the merrier? Id love a pack of 4, that's a nice group.

I may reconsider and stick with the nannacara or similar. I wanted something bigger tho to seperate them from large tetras. I want to see them at the other side of the room. So color is not so important anymore to me, but I don't want them to tear up my stargrass YIKES. I just got it outcompetting in growth the angels tearing it up fur funsies lol.

ok. Look into EBNA. Not my thing but I like EBAs so... lol. The coloUr will make them pop easier.
Your angels. lol
I keep EBA with angles never had any problems.
There’s actually two marble angels In the tank at the time of this picture.
They are just out of frame.
But you can see a candy cane tetra.
There’s some coryadoras,cherry barbs, bristled nose pleco and zebra danios in there also.

Hey
Wouldnt say schooling behavior but the 2 females usually follow the big dominant male around everywhere. The beta male is usually always at the surface somewhere and always begging for food.
Wow he's beautiful! So he didn't dig or mess up your plants much? I really like the size comparison to the candycane.
No, the most I’ve ever seen him do is grab a leaf and shake the plant (not doing any damage) to display for the female.
I’ve not seen any digging. They normally spawn on a rock.
