i got 1 black mutated angel fish 10 neon tetras 4 serpae tetras and 1 crowntail betta (red)

the angel needs a 30g tank or bigger, if you take it out, you'll be fine

the angel needs a 30g tank or bigger, if you take it out, you'll be fine

+1 although you might wanna take about 4 neons out and add another serpae

 

[datkidkevin]

the angel is still pretty small its only about an inch and a half...oh yea and i also wanted to know if i can add anymore fish

 

[Aquarium1]

It will get bigger.

 

[datkidkevin]

but as of rite now is he fine?? and he gets bigger it'll prolly just eat up the neons oh yea i forgot to mention i also have a pleco he's about almost 2inches

By himself (maybe with another angel) he would need a 30 gallon. They can grow up to 6". Try to take him back as soon as you can.

 

[datkidkevin]

well if he gets bigger he will be by himslef with 4 serpae tetras and the pleco

 

[Aquarium1]

in a 10 gallon, he'd be too big. They need a min. 30 gallons. And, what kind of pleco?

 

[datkidkevin]

just a regular o pleco

 

[datkidkevin]

are angels a slo gro?? in how long will he get to full size?

 

[Aquarium1]

If your regular o pleco is a common pleco, it could turn into this:

thats not me btw lol.

 

[Aquarium1]

someone more experience in angelfish might be able to know a little more about how fast they grow.

 

[datkidkevin]

hot ****...looks like a good eat..

 

[Aquarium1]

lol

What a about a bristle nose for your tank they dont get that big and they are nice to look at

 

[Asbestos]

Plecos have a big bioload and make a lot of messes. But bristle nose pleco all the way they are great. but to answer the first question over stocked the pleco needs more room.
