Tank for Angelfish

[AlexVic]

I’m thinking of buying a new tank and planning on adding some Lamarck Angel fish. The tank is gonna be at least 48” long and probably around 100 gallons. Is this tank big enough for a pair of these fish if not how big should it be?

Yep, one of my systems is 100g and i have a few more deep water angelfish including the pair above, been about 4 years now.

Thanks for the help! One last question do you think I can add a yellow tang ,powder blue tang, or purple tang in the tank?

I also have a yellow and powder brown in this system. The yellow is going to be your main utilitarian fish, great for algae control, powder brown does well too. Purple tangs are more aggressive, imo.

I personally avoid powder blue & brown tangs — they can be bullies; but more often than not, ich magnets!
