Emperor Tetras In 200l/55gallon

[techen]

How many Emperor Tetras could I fit in a 200L? Being that I want to get two angels as well. Are these a okay mix to have? Thanks you.

Emperor tetras are good tankmates for angels, IME.

You could have a dozen, if you're not intending to have too many other fish; you could still have eight or ten corydoras or loaches as well, or a small plec.

One point about angels though; two very often doesn't work, unless you get a mated pair, or start off with six or seven youngsters and let a pair form before rehoming the rest. Angels (and a lot of other cichlids) don't like having mates picked for them (even if you could sex them, which is very difficult).

Yea thanks Flutter, Thin I'll get some tetras and a angel fish then. Seems like a awesome idea.
