Paradise fish with an Angel...?

[Red Spider]

Question:

I know that paradise fish tend to be agressive - would it be an issue putting it in the same tank as a large Golden Angel?

I would also like to put in german ram

the tank is 46 gal but im going to be getting a 2nd tank shortly (roughly the same size perhaps bigger)

what would u reccomend?

thanks

i personally prob wouldn't recommend it. Paradise are aggressive and angels have trailing fins which are prime nipping material. I know its a relatively large tank but I still bet you would have a fight, whether its the angel starting it or the paradise is anyones guess.
If you can, avoid it but sup to you.

you might give it a try, worth that could happen is some nipped fins

If you're talking about the Paradise Gouramis, then no I wouldn't recommend it. But the bolivan rams should do just fine with them as IME they are pretty peaceful.
