Angels in a 29g

[SpaceBison]

Instead of getting a 20g, I'm probaly getting a 29g. Could I get an angel(or angels) in it? If so could I get any other fish?

[Adrian]

Yes, you can get angels in that tank, but I would limit it to a pair. Then fill it in with other fish, ones that are not "torpedeo shaped" as they will be food when the angels get bigger. I would get either rasboras, or similar looking fish, diamond tetras, bleeding hearts etc. Also, corys for cleaning your bottom, and perhaps some oto's for cleaning algae.

I wouldn't put more than 2 angels in that tank, as optimally, they need about 15 gallons per fish.

Hope that helps.

How would you feel about just one? If you get two, there is a high probability that they will fight until one is dead. You could have a school of medium sized tetras with one....

[SpaceBison]

Yeah, I'd be fine with one and some cories. Could I get 2 guoramies(they love each other and the other fish) with the one angel and some cories?

[Sharon]

If you are referring to Dwarfs, no problem. Some of the larger Gouramis get aggressive as they age, so it can be risky. I have a Blue Gourami with an Angel in my 55gal. and have had no problems

I don't agree that angels should go in a 29, I think too small. My opinion based on other's experience and a lot of reading.

I agree, i think its a bit small

[SpaceBison]

Yeah it's a blue guorami and a gold one. They get along great with each other and all the other fish.

[Sharon]

Definitely not room for those and an Angel...

[Algenco]

I feel 15g per fish is plenty, I have breeding pairs in bare 20g highs

I have never lost an Angel as a result of fighting, and in my community tank they squabble often

[SpaceBison]

Ok so would I bee okay with 2 female dawf guoramies?

[fishbum]

I would stick with a single angel if you want to keep other fish.

[fishbum]

Dwarf gourami are very territorial,but you might be able to have 2.Personally,I would only get 1 though.

[SpaceBison]

so would 2 dawrf guoramies be fine
