Balas definitely do better with friends, and you can probably buy some time with the 55. I think you were hinting at this, but if you do put them in a 55 make them the center piece of the tank with not too much other stock. I recently had to rearrange some decorations to make the full 4' of my tank availible for their cruising pleasure.

I have three. But like I said in an earlier post mine have out grown the 55 and I'm in need of a 125+ soon.
I never kept them.
From what I hear you could start with 3/4/5 small ones (I'm not familiar with your currency - nickel/dime/whatever
)) and hopefully a pair/pairs will form, leaving you with two/four in the long term, depending on other inhabitants. Or buy a mated pair and just have the two from the start. You'll want to re-home/return the non-paired Angel(s) as they will otherwise be severely harrassed.
