Angel Fish and a Black Ghost Knife

23 11:31:38

Question
I am thinking about getting two baby angel fish and a ghost knife, about 1 inch long. Do you think this would be a good pair? I have read multiple things. One person told me the two angels would fight, another said the two angels would pick on the ghost knife. It's a 32 gallon tank, by the way.

Answer
Hi Kayla,
 The key to success here would be to have lots of plants and/or wood in the tank to break up the space and provide hiding places.  If you have that, I think it might work out -- there are no guarantees in fish-keeping.
