So i finally got my angelfish this weekend. She (Idk what it is, too young to sex, but she looks like a little girl) is what i think is white marble? She is mostly white with some black coloration on her. Shes soo cute. But.. I kinda couldn't help myself, i bought two little tiger barbs. They were too cute to pass up! at the moment they are fine together, but do angelfish usually get along ok with tiger barbs? they arent like fin nippers or anything are they? cause i really hope not!
-heres a pic of her.. sorry its kinda bad, i took it with my phone

Pretty angel but oops, tiger barbs are fin nippers & need to be in a group of at least 6. They will eventually cause trouble for your angel. Harlequin rasboras are orange & black & very peaceful. They would be much better tankmates but also like to be in a group of 6+.
 
darn theyre so cute! i guess ill have to give them to my brother.. he has a small tank with two tigers in it already.. they will probably be much better off with them.
 
Celestial pearl danios are also schooling fish, with similar colors, but not stripes...they are very cool to watch, and I don't think they nip.
 
I agree on the harlequins but the pearl danios will become a snack for the angel. Also black skirt tetras are fun. As long as you have them in a large enough shool (8+) They are great. Also, how bid is the tank?
