LarryTAngler Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Hello all my name is Larry and Im an intermediate fish keeper. I currently have 4 tanks set up; 29 gallon, 20, gallon, 56g tall, and a 6g (quarantine) (empty) (winning!). I have Neon tetras, rummy nose tetras, pygmy Corys, Mollies of different varieties, BN plecos, but my mainstay is Angels. I LOVE Angels and just simply cannot have a tank without at least one in it (3 in my main tank). My reasoning behind Angels is simply the grace that they provide to an aquarium. They can be finicky when it comes to water parameters and such and thats the second reason why I like them. Angels tend to force the hand on aquarium maintenance for me as I simply cannot and will not lose one by my negligence. Same goes for my other fish of course, but maintaining optimum Angel health means the rest of my fish thrive along with them. I live in the cold north known as MN so needless to say my tank heater game is on point. I over filter all of my tanks at least 2 fold and I test water twice a week. I also love to fish the local lakes, hence my forum name. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StockEwe49 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Welcome! I am curious on what color types of angels you like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryTAngler Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 I'm thinking about adding a marble Angel, but I don't wanna upset the dynamic I have going with these three as they get along very well. Disregard the melting montecarlo and hairgrass lol just added them not too long ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gail Kali Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I love angels too. I’m just getting back to fish with a gift 20 gallon. I have Harlequin rasboras but I’m afraid an angel would out grow my tank and I likely won’t get more tanks at this point in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryTAngler Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Yeah a 20G is a bit small for Angels. A 20g would be fine for juvenile Angels but you will find yourself looking for a bigger tank sooner than you think. Im getting ready to upgrade to a 70g tall for the Angels I posted above. Harlequin Rasboras are beautiful fish and suited well for a 20g, but you can easily add more fish if you only have a few of the Rasboras stocked in it currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalmedByFish Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Welcome! My angel is my only fish that has a name, and the only one with an attitude. 🙂 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minanora Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Welcome! Your angels are lovely. Makes me miss keeping them myself. Looking forward to seeing that 70g tall come to fruition! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
