I’ve always wanted them. I have the chance now to have them. I’m being warned off them left right and centre. Are there ANY angelfish success stories out there?

It MAY work if you can get young angels and let them pair off and remove the excess, BUT...
a) you have a cichlid already
b) you have thin tetras and otos
3) the gourami may not accept them, are they gold (3-spot size) or dwarf morphs?

They are a mix between pearl and gold. Biggest is about 5 inches. It’s just something I might have to try and be prepared to fix down the line. If I get my 120 ltr up and running again and don’t stock it too much, then I would have somewhere to put them if things turned ugly as the angels mature...?
