Hi,
I have a 30 gallon (30"L x 12.5"W x 19"H) planted aquarium (java fern, java moss, wisteria (I think), miniature swords) with a gravel substrate and an Ehiem 2213 canister filter. I can’t remember the type of heater, but the tank stays fairly consistent at about 78F and the heater can be turned up if necessary.
The tank is cycled, and I added flourish excel and a liquid fertilizer after water changes. The tank is vacuumed / 30% water changed each week.
Currently the tank contains 4 platies and several endler guppies (which will hopefully have new homes by the end of this week).
I would like to add 5-6 corys for the bottom (probably juli or panda) and I would like to increase the platy group to 6 or 7.
I would like to add a single angelfish as centerpiece fish, but I’m not certain if this is a suitable set-up for an angelfish. from the reading I have done, it seems like the fish should be compatible and the tank size should be adequate and I'm not concerned about fry being eaten (in fact, I'm hoping for it.)However, I'd like confirmation from someone besides the guy at the fish store who is trying to get me to buy the fish!
Is the tank and the set-up suitable for an angelfish?
Thanks!
