k my gf has a 10 gallon tank tahts cycled, it currently has one platy and one dwarf gourami, and one guppy, would a single angel fish be ok in this tank or is it too small, or are the tank mates not compatible. we're both new to this, id put one in my 20 gal. but i wanna put cardinal teras in it and its my understanding that they dont get along the greatest.

Sadly, to small I'm afraid, also keep in mind angels become rather tall and require a tank AT least 18-19 inches tall, however, they do still require a lot of surface space as they dont just swim up and down.

ahh well then not even my tnak would be the right size, while the tank is a 20 gallon it is very tall and thin, its 24 inches high, where as the base is 20x10

A 20 high works fine for one angel in a small community OR a breeding pair w/o tankmates.
