Can Dwarf Angels live in my 55 gallon FOWLR

[kyarnkid]

I am struggling to find some nice fish to go in my 55 gallon. I know almost all of the tangs will not be comfortable and I was curious to whether the dwarf angels would work. I just want some colorful fish.
Can someone give me some ideas on some pretty fish that would work in my 55 gal.

the dwarf angels should be fine in your 55. i would go with a flame or coral beauty. but IMO you should deffinately WAIT UNTIL YOUR TANK IS ESTSBLISHED before you add an angel.
if you are struggling to find some fish to add, you can't go wrong with a flame hawk!!!
hope that helps

exactly what BenTrue said im going to have a flame and 8 other (small) fish in my tank

yep, esp. about flames or coral beauties
one other thing about the dwarfs, only get
1 total
they don't get along with their own species, besides the tank isn't big enough for 2 and other fish anyhow
HTH
I gave you some info and a compatibility chart, Didn't I?
that is a great source for this type of question too

ya i would only go with 1 dwarf angel the coral beauty and flame are really nice there are several different species of dwarfs you might want to check out

as far as colorful fish your dwarf would be nice. fire fish reds, and purples are common, green chromis are nice (recommend at least 3 or more), clowns, dottybacks (several different colors), bangaii cardinals they would all give your tank some color and all pretty hardy fish hope that gives u some ideas
