I have been doing a lot of thinking lately ... because I love my baby angels so much, you know, lol. I wanted to wait with my next big planted tank (which would be something around 125 gallons) until I get my own place so that I wouldn't have to struggle with the transfer of such a big tank. Plus, I wouldn't have the time for a heavily planted 125G now anyway.
BUT ... I love these angles so much that I think I will get a 75G in a few months. This doesn't mean I won't get the heavily planted 125G that I always wanted because I will, just not now. In the meantime, maybe I could get the 75G tank which would be definitely less work than a 125G planted, and it would enable me to keep at least some of the 11 angels that I have. Maybe I could even get some other fish to live in the 75G with the angels. It wouldn't be anything that I would consider beautiful in terms of appearance, but it will provide more space for my fishies. So it would essentially be an economical tank.
So ... do you think that would be a good idea? Carol, like I said, I'd like to keep some of these angels, or at least one pair. Could I put all of these little angels, when they're a bit bigger, in the 75G tank and let them grow up there and pair up? Then, when I have selected a pair or two pairs perhaps, could I put my old 2 angles together with these new pairs in the 75G tank? Or will they all fight? How many angelfish pairs do you recommend for a 75G tank? I wouldn't keep more than 6 angels in that 75G. But it would have to be at least 4 angels because I'd like to keep my current pair of angels with the new pair of angels in that 75G tank - they'd all have so much more space. Or should I keep all 11 angles in a 75G tank? (Not really, right?)
Looks like my MTS is progressing to ever more severe stage, lol. By the time I am like 50 years old, I'll probably have my house run over by tanks, lol. (Plus, cats and dogs of course!)
