Angelfish OK As Loners

[lgreenmk]

When you get an angelfish, does it have to have another one or are they ok as singles?

Also, do they get along with guppies?

Angelfish do fine solo. What size tank do you plan on putting them in?

And in my expierence, angelfish pretty much ignore guppies.

Yes, Angelfish will be fine with being just one. And my Angels never bothered my guppies. The only fish that were ever a problem with my Angels were my male Sailfin molly (he jumped out of the tank, RIP) and my betta. I have a tank of Angels and I put some zebra danios with them, but they were chasing my Angels all the time so I moved them to another tank.
But guppies should be fine.

Hmm. Depends on the angelfish, I guess. I know for a fact that at least two of my angels regard guppies as an attractive snack. I never put any fish smaller than my angels' mouths in their tank. They'd eat them... not if, but when.

Oh hmm, if you mean feeder guppies. Since they are tiny. Fancy guppies would be fine.
