im thinking about turning my 29g freshwater tank into a dwarf angel tank. could i get these fish:

flame angel

CB angel

lemon peel

2x false percs

blood shrimp

a few hawaiian feather dusters?

then the ususal cleaning crew, snails, and hermits.


for lights i would just run like a 30 watt coral life actinic.

filteration, im getting a aqua C remora skimmer from my friend soon.

would i be able to get all of those fish, and some LR with those lights?

hmmm....IMO the tank is too small for that many dwarfs....quarrels over territiory would be pretty common...

In a 29, you could get away with maybe one dwarf angel....

Angels are fairly mild mannered, I have housed them with many other species, but they (like so many other fish) can be territorial, especially in a smaller tank. The real limitation is going to be your tank size. Clowns should do ok with an angel, possibly some of the more passive damselfish....

In the past, I've kept a coral beauty happily with a clown and a trio of green chromis. No problems at all!

LemonPeels are AWESOME...I heard they are agressive though.

I would think maybe a CoralBeauty sized angel and maybe like a pygmy might work I wouldn't do much more than that though. No Promises. :)

Hey sounds like my tank! one Yellow watchman, one Perc and One coral beauty. Yellow tang is just temp. I have no problems at all. Heck if you wanted to get it alittle more busy throw a sixlined wrasse in also.
