30 gallon questions

i just recieved a 30 gallon aquarium free wwith a stand, canister filter, UG filter, and other various acesories. i was wondering what all i could do with anglefish? would a pair of anglefish, a Bristlenose Pleco, and mabye some neons work?

I doubt angelfish and neons will work together. angels can get territorial and are not fond of fast moving fish. Im sure others will reply to this but I "think" the bristle-nose would work.

When the tank has substrate and water in it, measure from the top of the substrate to the water line, if it is 18+inches you can have angels, neons are hit and miss with angels, cardinal tetras generally work better, and a Bristlenose Pleco will be fine.

Also if you wish to have a pair of angels, they will need to be a proven pair.

Neon what? You probably mean tetra's but they aren't the only "neons"..

ok...but will they fit bio wise? it is tall enough and what would yalls suggestions to stocking it with angels? i want to have angels no doubt but what to stock around them in a 30 gallon and how many angels?

Jack Middleton

1 Angel or a proven pair, if you just plonk 2 angels in they'll end up fighting, another alternative is to buy 6 or so and wait for two of them to pair off and then return the rest.
