Got 2 Angelfish today. 26 gallons. Bow front. 4 other fish in there too. DEAL.

Did you cycle it beforehand???
Just a question: what are the other four fish you got? Don't know how well they would do with 2 angels in a 26 Bow, I think that's only enough room for the angels themselves.

Nu-Nu the eel said:Okayy. Where are they going when they each reach 6"?

I prefer going with a 30+ personally for a pair, but I've kept them in as small as a 20H for breeding and they are just fine in it.
I don't think the guy intended to get lectured on stocking plans with this thread so lets try to avoid it or at least come off in a more helpful manner.
