I just added a very small (1.5") marbled angel to a moderately planted, well-established 30g with 12 platies, 6 rasboras, and 4 peppered cories (and a couple of snails). I'm hoping it'll help control the constant platy baby boom in my tank when it grows up.
The new angel is too young to sex, as are its tankmates at the LFS.
Everyone else in the tank is a community fish, and he looks a little lonely. But I've heard angels are notoriously territorial, especially if you end up with a breeding pair.
Should I get another of the little LFS angels to be his buddy? Or is that asking for trouble? It's a very nice, stable, peaceful tank, and I'd rather keep it that way. But I don't want him to spend his life hiding behind the hyacinth.
Thanks in advance,
Laura
