Keeping multiple angelfish
In the next few months i would like to order multiple angels and introduce them at the same time into my tank. I would like to see who has successfully kept multiple angels in a tank, and what species they were?? Also suggestions on what angels you think would work best
Thanks yall

Were you talking about multiples of the same species or multiple species of angels or both? I have seen someone who kept about five of the same dwarf angel in a 180g tank so it definitely can be done.
We have three angels in our 210g that we've had for a couple of years (or more) and they do not even notice one another. They are a coral beauty (dwarf), a flame (dwarf) and a bellus. I would think that in a 375g tank you could keep whatever you like. The coral beauty went in first and several months later the flame was added. For a week or two there was some hazing and giving chase by the coral beauty, but the flame angel found a spot to hide when she wanted and never seemed too concerned about it. Introducing the bellus was completely without incident.

I used to have a coral beauty (dwarf) and a flame (dwarf) together in my 90g. They were introduced at the same time and after a day or two paid little to no attention to each other.

I was talking about different species of Larger angels.( in addition to a flame angelfish) I would really like to get a Majestic, blue ring, and maybe a queen. But i have heard the horror stories of angels killing each other. I would introduce all the angels at the same time and order them smallOriginally Posted by Scream311
James- Did you put the emperor and blue ring in at the same time??

No the Emperor was in there for about 6 months before I introduced the larger blue ring
