I live in Bucks - can you say where the shutting shop is?? :shifty:

The two biggest angels are currently 2 inches nose to tail, the smaller one is inch and a quarter.

Thanks everybody for interesting thread. My tank is 35 UK gallons - 160 litres, and I know that the fish I have in there currently are definitely not overcrowded, and do feel that the tank will take a few more (small) fish. :rolleyes:

I have 3 angels, about 10 platies and 5 cories.

Can anyone recommend slow moving shoaling fish which shoal very tightly together and will fit in with my platys, angels and corys. The tank is fully planted and has been running very well for about five months - 35 gallons. Thanks for advice in advance :rolleyes:

Yes I set the tank up for 3 weeks before adding fish. Is the very small amount of ammonia causing the behaviour? Is it just a question of patience now? I am adding "cycle" on a regular basis - 4 capfuls a week.

My tank (150 litres) has been set up for a month - 4 platys in for 3 weeks, another 6 for 6 days - all seem very healthy and happy with much energy. Came home tonite and all 10 are hiding and frightened for no apparent reason at all. Water tested - ammonia 0.6, nitrite 0.0, nitrate 7, pH 7.5...
