What large angel would you put with an afur angel and scribbled angel, (if any) other tank mates include moorish idol, sailfin tang, purple tang, powder blue tang, lunnar wrasse, gsm clownfish, cherb pygmy angel, coral beauty drawf angel, bicolor drawf angel and 1/2 black drawf angel

tank is 6'x2'x29" 210g
 
Jeez that tank is probably overstocked.And anyway,all those fish have probably claimed territories,so one of the fish would end up getting killed.
 
that's a butt-load of angels, im su[rised you don't already have fighting and that the dwarf angels are still kicking it...


i wouldn't push it with another angel
 
i agree, its normally advised against keeping multiple larger angels together in the same tank anyways. I understand you like angels but get something different. Wrasses are active and always add a splash of color, why not look at some of them, or even anthias. Little harder to keep but they add color and personality.
 
depsnding on the disposition of your lunar wrasse another wrasse would be a good idea, somehting like a lyretail hogfish or tuskfish maybe?
 
You all are probably right about pushing my luck with angels/agression and yes sofar i have been lucky the only agression from any of the angels is the asfur will chase the bicolor when the bicolor goes into the asfurs cave...thats the only angel to angel agression.. now the asfur and the lunnar wrasse dislike each other but for the most part give each other repectfull distance.. the lunnar was tank boss before the asfur.. the asfur says iam boss now and the lunnar says ok but i hate you for it.

maybe i should start the next tank to get my next angel
 
or even to space out the ones you have now

if that asfur is THAT bossy, i wouldn't consider many fish safe to add at this point
