I'm not sure how big angels are supposed to get, and it depends on the kind that you have. But, I'm sure they wouldn't be very happy in a 5g. They get very tall and like to have lots of space to swim.

If you have any questions about how cycling works, we are all here to help! This is really the first step to fish keeping.

We just want you to have a successful and healthy tank! Welcome to MFT!
Thank you for the advice the fish aren't bigger then 1.5 inches for the angels and about .75 for the playta and I will be receving a 29 gallon tank any advice how to cycle what plants I should get and when I should get more fish also I was wondering if the angels and the plyta can Handel aquarium salt so I can get a spotted puffer? Thanks for the help.

P.s. I was wondering if the playta's behavior is regular or is it sick or is it possible pregnant :-(
