fish compatibility

wanna get into tropical freshwater, could angel fish, id sharks, and maybe a clownloach or two be in the same tank?

How big is the tank, irridescent sharks get up to 3 feet

 

[phillydog1958]

yes, those fish can dwell together.

Clown loaches do best in trios or more. Angels could work, but I'd do no more than one mated pair. I've tried two pairs in my 125 and had trouble. Your experience may be different, but I've just found them to be ridiculously hostile toward one another.

for a small time, i will upgrade eventually

Clown loaches should be in groups of at least three...same with ID sharks...keep in mind that ID sharks usually grow 18-24 inches in aquariums. Given that they are such active fish, a tank of at least 180 gallons is required, and longer/wider would be better.

won't work, ID sharks are very active and grow pretty big

yeh clown loaches need to be in a shoal of atleast 3 and ID sharks will grow to 3ft and need atleast 460G or more once they reach a large size and angel fish will go with these fish really easy these fish arent really aggressive just watch the clown loaches for nipping!
