Stocking ideas for 200g

[ImACoolguy]

How about:

Synodontis eupterus
Leporinus fasciatus
Epalzeorhynchos bicolor
Datnioides unidecimaradiatus
Mastacembelus ethrotaenia

I wouldn't recommend any of those except the red tails and feather fins for a beginner. Especially Dats, and Leporinus.

+1000.

The leporinus would be an awful tankmate for what is already in the tank. Mine chewed on every fish he was with, it wouldn't be good at all for an angel.

Afraid not. Why not bump up the number of angels, add some schools of either rainbows or Denison barbs and plant it?

30 Kuhli loaches
School of boesemani rainbows

How meny angle fish do you think

Wait you added a knifefish and [EDIT:] red tail shark?

Sorry but the shark has no place in an angel tank. They are semi aggressive and maybe clash with a mature angel. On top of that, 2 sharks in the tank is asking for trouble anyway as they will clash for territory.

The knifefish is probably manageable but IMO wouldn't recommend it. Do you know the species? If it's a BGK is say take it back they get huge. If it is a brown knife or a clown it MIGHT work. They are not beginner fish IMO they are nocturnal and many are wild caught so they can be tricky to feed the first few weeks.
