Compatability with Dwarf Angels

[jonnybravo22]

Hi Everyone,

Wondered if you can sanity check here as I've seen vastly differing opinions in my research.

Can either of the following dwarf / pygmy angels live well in a 29g biocube?

Bicolor Angel- Centropyge bicolor
Coral Beauty Angel- Centropyge bispinosus


Other tankmates would be a pair of percula clownfish. Thanks a lot.

I personally think that any dwarf angel's minimum tank size should be 40 gallons. If you only have the two clowns one of those two dwarf angels in the 29g cube they may be okay but you can consider that tank maxed out with swimming inhabitants.

Those two would get too large for a 29 gallon long term imo. Look into the argi complex of dwarf angels (cherub angel, African or brazilian flameback, fishers angel, etc). In my 29 gallon I have a pair of ocellaris, african flameback, and royal gramma. The flameback was added last to help curb with its aggression.
