Hi all,
It has been a while since I did a top 10 tankmates video, and a lot of people have been asking me about angelfish lately.
Hope you enjoy this video of my top 10 angelfish tankmates. I made an effort to not include the 'same old' ones that everyone says.
Cheers.

I did the rainbow fish recommendation and you are so right. Some people have concerns of them being too darty, but the angelfish don’t seem to mind. They generally don’t even acknowledge the rainbow fish’s existence.

Great! I feel better about my plans for my next tank. Some people say you shouldn't have a blue acara with angels. I was thinking of one of each, a big school of diamond tetras, and some type of cory.

Great video Blake, and quite excellant timing! I was actually thinking of getting some angels to grow out and possibly breed. Thanks mate👍🏻🙂

Kribensis are very protective parents and fast swimmers. Anything that gets even remotely close to their fry gets chased off immediately for the first 3 weeks. They will even kill fishes in order to protect their young and they may bite you in the arm if you dare put it in the aquarium when they have fry. I have about 40-50 fry in my 60 gallon aquarium at the moment that are about a month old now and at least 6 tetras are gone so far. Kribensis are peaceful fishes when they don't have fry but they certainly don't fool around when it comes to protecting their fry during the first couple of weeks or until their fry are about 1/2" in size and can fend for themselves.

Very helpful. I am in the beginning process of starting to stock my new 75 g tank. I have two young pearl gouramis. 1&1/2" geophagus topajos who is in quarantine tank (showed ick spots and now bulging eye, one more than the other) so do not know if it will make it. I would then like to add a koi angel as another centerpiece fish. I like the idea of the rainbow fish. I love the Denison barbs but man are they fast. Some say they can stress an angel out a bit with their high activity level. I like the idea of an electric blue acara as well. Always appreciate others sharing their experiences so thank you to all:)

I would think kuhli loaches are too fast and all over the place, like corydoras? I just doubled my school of kuhlis to 6 and they spend hours surfing up and down one of the front corners of the 100 gallon, bouncing off whoever gets in their way, lol! I suspect they will go full nocturnal if they get bullied by the 7 angels? I have 3 juvienile electric blue acara and a juvenile geophagus tapajos in my 100, too. That's the combo, I'm really watching closely!! Thanks for a great video!

I'm a beginner and didn't know angel fish are cichlids. I recently got 2 of them for my community tank. I will soon be removing the 6 neon tetras. Also they don't show any signs of aggression.

I plan to get Denison barbs but I hear it’s recommended to get a power head… would that make it uncomfortable for my angel fish??

@myst9072 2 жыл бұрын

My denison barbs are fin nipping my veiltail angelfish so i dont think they work will with that type angelfish

Love the info mate! Would the barbs go alright with Congo’s? Looking for stocking ideas for my 500L tank

@BlakesAquatics 2 жыл бұрын

Hmm might nip up those fins. Risky, id only do it with a backup plan or a huge group of the barbs

@aidossgaming2491 2 жыл бұрын

@@BlakesAquatics Righto sounds good. Might just settle for the barbs and a school of bosemani. Good contrasting colours. Thanks bud! 👍

@aidossgaming2491 2 жыл бұрын

Plus it would work out to be a more cost effective, active and colourful fish.

How do the Blue Acaras go temperament wise with the Angel Fish?

@BlakesAquatics 2 жыл бұрын

As a solo fish they are great! I had one in a rainbow and angelfish community tank for ages. One day it started digging up plants for fun/ to annoy me though so got a few more and moved it to a breeding tank

@kathydoro1527 2 жыл бұрын

I have 5 congo tetras, 5 albino corydoras, and 7 rummy nose tetras in my Angel tank only 1 female angel at the moment as the male Angel is in time out at the moment for being a bully to his mate. Do you think I could add 1 female Kribensis? They look awesome. Its a 160litre tank full planted.

@BlakesAquatics 2 жыл бұрын

yeah I reckon. the only risk is that the krib might terrorise some plants if you have fine leaved plants.
