how many diffrent species of drawf angels in a 7ft x 2ft fowlr if the drawfs were all added at the same time and under 2 inches each...

fixing to spend sme tax money and would love to have a drawf angel tank... tank is well cycled would just move some current larger fish from the tank to other tanks (175g bow and 210g 6ft) to add the new draws..no draws currently in the tank
 
I would do 1, I have a 210 and was very tempted to add 2 when set up but decided it was not worth it and just went with a coral beauty. I would love to add a Flame but dont want to risk it...
 
Adding them in at the same time in a tank that size usually turns out ok. Rearanging the rocks/hiding places when adding one a little later also works pretty good. But ultimatly its gonna be up to their personalities.
 
That tank is large enough that you could get away with adding more then one even at different times. In my experience it is size that matters more. However, it seems like everyone has a different story on what works and what doesn't.
 
I have a flame and bicolor in a 160. Never a problem, I suspect I could have added another if it was different in appearance.

I also have a Regal and Queen in the same tank.
 
I kept a half black and coral beauty in a 75 for some time...ended up pulling the half black after a while because it bothered my corals too much.
