Considering a pair of Pterophyllum leopoldi in a 29 gallon tank [30x12x18 in]. Could I put the recommended six in the tank, with the expectation of rehoming 4 after, while waiting for a single pair? And for the record, just how big do they get, exactly, the Leopold's Angelfish?
 
Ok, so what I can find is they top out at about 3" SL. I would say a half dozen in a 29 til they pair up should be fine.
 
They're not massively different to Scalare and still get quite tall.
