So, a SA will probably try to eat just about anything that they think will fit in its mouth. I've seen the picture of the angel with an oto sticking out of its gills. Since I'm going to be shuffling tanks around, and was considering a situation where my angel and otos would be together (as well as endlers, but I was banking on the endlers being more horny than the angel was hungry.)
Keeping them separate is, of course, going to be the safest solution and it wouldn't be too hard to do, but I'd really rather not have to set up a extra tank just for this, especially since I don't know that I'd be able to spend much time watching him that way (that's part of the reason I want to combine my community tanks.) Am I looking at a significant risk, or just a small outside chance? I can live with risk, but if I'm really tempting fate I'll figure something out. For reference this is a scalare-type angel, not an altum monster. I don't know that I'd trust an altum with my bloodfins.
