Sounds good to me

great im going back to lfs to get them if they are still there just another quick question can i put a shoal of 6 threadfin rainbows with the rams?

Not mixed them before but not sure, maybe let the rams settle and see how pushy they are. Are your angels very forceful or are they okay? If you notice any ripped fins on other fish I would consider doing an other type of rainbow that dont have the long extentions like dwarf neon or forktail? But if the rams and angels fins are all healthy you should be fine with the threadfins

my angels are really nice ive seen them swimming around with my corydoras quite often as if they are friends lol when i first put the angels in they were shy but they seem a whole lot happier now

i like the threadfins because of their long trailing fins plus need a nice little shoal of fish for middle layer then i can find something for the top and that should be all for my aquarium
