Wondering if I could put 3 female swordtails, 3 female balloon mollies, 3 female platies, 1 Bristlenose catfish and one angelfish in a 20 gallon? TIA
 
Is it a 20 high or long tank? If it's a long and you leave out the angelfish I think it's ok. 20's are too small for angelfish long term.
 
Your Tank

Hello Lil...

Anglefish are Cichlids. So, they can be fin nippers. Mollies like larger tanks, because they're territorial. If you don't mind some fin nipping and a little bullying from the Mollys, then you're good.
