can i do two lemonpeel angels?

[geaux xman]

I have a 3" lemonpeel angel in QT right now. I'm starting to really like the fish. Can i do 2?

This is the only dwarf angel i have.

I have a decent amount of rocks in a 180g FOWLR.

If you get them small, or of very different sizes, then yes. lemonpeel angels are one of the easier angels to pair or do a harem with. i was going to do a pair but decided to go with a single flame and lemonpeel instead.

so doing 3-5 isnt impossible?

i think 3 is ok and i've heard of people doing 3. i don't know about 5 though... my gut instinct and experience with angels tell me that may not be a good idea. 180 isn't really big enough for that many dwarf angels. i think 3 should be ok if all introduced carefully at the same time, but with 5 you run a high risk of having one that decides he does not to want to live with the rest.

I've 2 lemonpeel in a 180 fowlr with the first one from 2008 and the smaller one was added last year. There was some initial chasing in the beginning but since doing very well. Both are housed with three flame that's been together since November 2007.
