Bug Buffet & Green Cuisine Available Here - purefin.shop/ In this video, I give a list of the 10 best tankmates for angelfish in a community aquarium. I give information about each fish and a bunch of different tips and tricks.

The fish listed in this video are:

- Corydoras Catfish

Cory Catfish, also called Cory Cats, Cory Fish and Corydoras Catfish, are very popular freshwater fish in pet stores. Corys are hardy fish for their size and are staples in freshwater community tanks.

- Bolivian Rams

The Bolivian ram is a small, good looking and peaceful cichlid. Keeping Bolivian ram is quite easy, and a great choice for community tanks. The fish is a bit more aggressive, though if comparing it with cichlid species in general it’s not aggressive at all. Its behaviour is meant more to scare the other fish, not attack or hurt.

- German Blue Rams

The Blue Ram cichlid, also known as German Blue Ram, is a beautiful and peaceful cichlid, popular among aquarists, but not recommended for beginners.

- Guppies


Guppies are a small livebearing fish, immensely popular as tropical aquarium fish - particularly for community aquaria and for beginners. They are colourful, peaceful, easy to care for and probably the easiest of all aquarium fish to breed.

- Kribensis

Pelmatochromis pulcher is a bright dwarf cichlid which is not very demanding as for its tank conditions.

- Cherry Barbs

Cherry Barbs are brightly colored fish and one of the most popular in their family. Their bright colors and schooling nature are adored by aquarists of all levels.

- Kuhli Loach

The Kuhli Loach is generally a nocturnal and shy fish, which will like to find a hiding place during the day. However, they will readily come out at feeding time. They are very adept at locating bits of food in an aquarium, and are often included in an aquarium to ensure that there is no buildup of uneaten foods under rocks or wood.

- Mollies

Mollies are very versatile fish having the unique ability to live in both freshwater and saltwater if acclimated slowly. Just like other livebearers, mollies are easy to breed, and make fascinating fish for the seasoned aquarist. These fish will add drama and contrast to the semi-aggressive aquarium.

- Platy

Platies are hardy and colorful fish that make a wonderful addition to the passive community aquarium. Platies are easy to breed, and new colour varieties are developed through selective breeding programs. Platies make a perfect addition to the aquarium for the novice to expert alike.

- Bristlenose

The Bushy Nose Plecostomus, also known as the Bristlenose Plecostomus, comes from the rivers and tributaries of South America. It is mainly brown, with a mottling of lighter areas. The mouth area and nose are covered in short, whisker-like appendages, which are used for detecting food. There are also many color and fin variations available. Bushy Nose Plecos make good additions to any community aquarium.

Thanks so much for watching!

    the fact that his door was wide open while it was dark out gave me so much anxiety
  • Fun fact : Buy the Angelfish as baby’s or when they are still young so they will think of the other fish as Tank mates instead of food.
  • I always feel like top ten angel tankmate recommendations are basically a menu, thank you for sparing my tetras
  • @emmanuelV37

    I just got 2 new anglefish today and I’m so exited to adding more fish. I have a few others in there (swordtails) and they’re doing great. My parrot fish died and I was really attached to that fish I taught it tricks and it would follow me to where I was in my room and I am sad that he died. Hoping these fish will set a good feeling in my room. :)
  • Just got my first angelfish today. Two quarter sized juveniles. Currently in quarantine tank before they get added to the 40 gallon!
