Angel Tankmates

[Nic]

i dont think the oscars and the acaras would be a good idea either

 

[AtomixIGN]

Oscars? I had a pair that must have been 7" tall get mauled to death by a Firemouth.

 

[hewhorunswithscissors]

I have mine with the following:

3 widebar dats
3 indo dats
1 black aro
3 atf
4 brycon dentex
1 pbass
1 lungfish (SA)
1 A. falcatus
1 marble goby
1 sheatfish
2 snook
2 jd
1 royal knife
1 BGK
1 dolphin mormyrid
1 severum
1 jurapari
1 tigrinius
1 fire eel
1 ripsaw cat

yeah, its a badass tough angel. Has been permanantly housed with this group of bruisers for a couple years. NO problems EVER. He is tough and mean. Put another agel in there one time and he killed it. He eats chunks of smelt and market prawn

Make your angel a BADDASS, not a girlie-fish!!!

That's no Angelfish. What you have is the Diablofish.

 

[pappy518]

I kept my angels with severums and had no problems

 

[phillausten]

Mesonauta seem to work well

 

[Keeper of the Ropes]

I've kept them with swords, senegal bichirs, leaf fish, ropefish, knives, killifish, corys, plecos, african clawed frogs, red clawed crabs, paradise fish... their favorite neighbors are other angels

Just don't put them with something small enough to fit in their mouths or anything with finnage that you happen to like looking at.

 

[stotty]

Butterfly fish, giant danios, congo tets, glass cats, glass fish, dwarf gouramis, any non fin nipper larger than 1 1/2 inch but not longer that the angel's total length.

Angel's are generally peaceful, but can be aggressive eaters and do become territorial while breeding. In the past have had loads with them my dad always had them in his tanks have had Gourami,Larger Tetras i.e Bleeding Heart Tetra,Black Phantom Tetra,Congo Tetra,Bala Shark, Rams, Apistogrammas, corys you get the idea dont keep them with fish that nip fins like Barbs

 

[swannee]

I keep 30 Cardinal tetras with my 3 Angels, and after 4 months I still have all 30 cardinals

 

[scrossmans]

I have a 65g tank with two angels one read tail shark, dozen or so hatchets and three glass cats all have been doing well I would like to add some rams but didnt know if I would run into problems also had noticed someone adding gouramis with these is this ok as well?
