Hi guys,
I have noticed that a lot of you have Angelfish in with your O's.
Whats the general consensus, do the two fish usually get on well together? or will they more often than not end up as dinner for the O's?
My O' is 11-12" and the angels significantly smaller, but still probably to tall to fit in his mouth.
he doesnt usually show any aggro to other fish, unless my SD's get to close to his face @ feeding time and even then he just chases them to the other end of the tank.
what do you think?
thanks for any help.

angel though has thin body, it has a wide size upward, thus difficult to swallow.
moreover, it has very rough skin, thus, may not be tasty for an o. the fin upward
is also sharp huh!

i have my a 5 inches angel with a 14 inches o but have no issue at all.
the only set back i observe was that angel tend to become fat and will
make them move slow. i lost my angel due to too much fat.

Im not so sure if angels should be kept with oscars especially if you have one that is aggressive. An oscar could easily injure or even kill an oscar

ha ha ha... i'm about to say that too.... it so happen i was deeply asleep

no kidding aside, when my o tried to bully the angel before, the o ended up
with bruised mouth. whenever i get hold of my angel, i could feel it skin
that feel like a sand paper.... it is almost the same with plecs skin
