So I have a 29 gallon with two angels in it. They are Juviniels and I don't think that they are going to grow out to thier full size but I think that they will get bigger.
My question is:
What other Cichlids would be compatable with the angels?
I have fairly hard water and my pH is aobut 7.6

I have treid rams but they died, I think they need softer water and less PH.
I like Kribs, Firemouths, Keyholes.
If you have any recomendations for new fish that would be great!
I think that I might add one more angel too at about the same size as the ones that I have.

Thanks For The Help!

why dont you think they will grow out to their full size? are they a m/f pair? if so, you would have best luck sticking to just bottom dwellers..if they are same sex, you could have a pair of firemouths ...

Thanks Shawnie,

have you had fire mouths with angels befor?

Im not sure of the sex I'll post a picture of only one becuase I couldn't get a good pic of the other one.

I was thinking about getting a pair of small fire mouths and putting them with my angels so they could grow up together, but I was worried about thier agression.

I have Bolivian Rams with my angles. The rams chase them away when they're near the bottom, but it seems my rams are exceptional meanies.

John,

Whats the PH level of your tank? I know that my hardness is high and so is my PH but it is stable. When I got the rams. I was stupid and I sorta took out all the bactieria from the tank by sucking out too much from the gravel so I my ammonia rose and I lost a few fish from that. But Im not sure if I lost the Rams from that or if my PH wasa too high or if I aclimated them wrong.

My pH hovers around 7.2.

I actually have 3 firemouths with my breeding pair of angels but in a 55g tank......and the angels are great with them until they spawn..then the firemouths stay on their own side of the tank..but im still wondering why you think your angels wont grow up ? in a 29 gal, you will be pushing the limit with a m/f combo of angels and anything else but bottom dwellers...
