    Default Angels or Rotkeil severums?

    I'm currently planning a 120 gallon tank (60' x 18') with the following stock:

    5-6 O Tapajos sp. Geophagus 'Orange Heads'
    20 lemon tetras
    10 golden pencilfish
    8 julii corydoras

    I would also like to add a mid-swimming cichlid to the mix, and I'm trying to decide between a few angels or a pair of rotkeil severums. Which would be the better pick? I'll have an FX5 on the tank and decor will consist primarily of manzanita driftwood with no plants.

    Yeah, I was kind of leaning severum myself. Would two rotkeils be a better option than a single standard severum? I would like to have a spotted orange one, but I don't think my tank has enough real estate for two spotted severums and a school of orange heads.
