Hey everyone........I've gotten to where I absolutely love angelfish. I have a 55g long tank with 2 Penguin Bio Wheel Filters. My current stocking is:

5 Angels
12 Cory Cats
1 Pleco

My angels school and are always swimming together. They occasionally chase each other, but nothing more than that. I've had 1 pair spawn twice, and they just chase the others away when they get near eggs.

My largest angel is about 5", and the smallest is about half dollar size. Could I add 1 to 2 more, or will 5 be the max I can add? Also, how do some of you get such large angels? I used to buy huge angels from my LFS, but they went out of business a couple of years ago. Thanks!

remember, the more you add the greater the chance of pairs forming..

when that happens they will stake out territory and all but the pairs will become targets.
