60 Gallon Tank Pterophyllum Leopoldi Tank

[GetFreshedAquariums]

I'm looking at getting some leopoldi angels for my 60 gallon tank.
The tank is 38" by 20" by 20"

The tank already has two 12 cm yoyo loaches (these are 3 years old and fully grown) and 8 black phantom tetras.
I want to add 6 or 8 Leopoldi angels to the tank (preferably 8) but wasn't too sure if 8 would be too many.

Let me know what you think? 6 or 8?

I would not do more then 6. I started with 12 in a 60 gallon and that was ok when they were young. I am down to 6 now in the same 60. When they are in the pre spawn and spawning mindset that is too many. I am considering going to 4

You may find them as they mature to be a little aggresive with one another. Its a pretty common thing for angels to be a little 'nippy' with eachother when kept in groups.
