| You really should get at least 5 silver dollars. They're schooling fish and won't be very happy with only 2. |

| Many of the smaller tordeo-shaped Tetras, Rasboras and Danios will be at risk with Angelfish.
Better choices are the larger, more oval-shaped Tetras (such as Bleeding Heart or Diamond Tetras) and larger Cyprinids. |

| I think that I will have in my 75 gall a pleco , a pitcus catfish, and a pair of angelfish and a couple of apple snails ! Should this be a problem? |

| Shawnie do your silver dollars bother your angels?
I keep looking at them and am afraid to put them with the angels.

Carol | nopers my silvers are very calm ...amazing fish almost as elegant as the angels...not as personable tho ...lil more skittish...
pictus are total cleaners of the leftovers but I feed mine some veggies on a clip and put in some algae wafers now and then...easy goer's for sure |

| I did dwarf Gouramais with me angels. They seemed to do well together. I also went against the common belief of keeping discuss with angels, but I had very good success with that as well. You have to be careful with the discuss however. I aggressively check water conditions with that combo. |
