    I am just starting my new 125gallon fish only tank and want to put two angelfish in it. I was told that since my tank is so big that I can. Im still not sure. Anyone has any idea please tell me.

    I see no reason why you couldn't get an Angel. But if you have plans to go with a reef in the future or have inverts be very careful as to what Angel you pic. Some will eat corals nip clams and eat inverts

    Best to add them together and also beneficial to ad different types of angels as well. For instance a Koran angel and a coral beauty..or similar!
    By the way welcome to 3reef!
    Best of luck with the tank!

    I'd have to know what type of angels you are thinking about first.. Pygmy species of the larger species ? Is there a lot of rock work with hiding places in your tank ?
