these are the fish i have in my tank:
2 zebra danios
1 bala shark
2 giant danios
1 black molly
2 red velvet swordtails
2 dalmation mollies
is the angel fish going to be compatible?
are they going to be okay in crowded tanks.cause i have a 10 gallon tank and these are the fish i have in it. i was going to buy another bala shark. so is it okay. are my fish going to nip the fins of the angel fish? cause i heard someone in yahoo say the zebra danios were nipping the fins. thanks
Answers:
I wouldn't worry about the zebra danios really, but your tank is already far too crowded for any more fish, much less angels. I would really suggest you remove the Bala Shark and the 2 Giant Danios, both of those fishes will quickly outgrow your tank. WIthout those, the rest of the fish should be fine.

Angelfish are some of the most agressive fish you can put in your tank. I would be more worried about the angelfish biting everybody else and each other.
You might want to upgrade your tank to maybe a 15 to 20 gallon tank if you want to get a veriaty of fish. Every inch of a fish that you have, needs a gallon of water. I would say go to wallmart and get a 15 gallon tank and use the same filter and air pump to save money. then you can put your fish and any new fish that you want in there.
Your 10-gallon tank is already too crowded.
Tank Size Fish Capacity
10 gal. 8-12
20 gal. 12-15
30 gal. 15-20
55 gal. 20-30
Plus here is the correct tank size for the species that you currently have:
Species and Minimum Tank Size
Angelfish: 30 gal. min.
Bala Sharks: 70 gal. min.
Mollies: 30 gal. min.
Giant Danios: 30 gal. min.
Swordtails: 20 gal. min.
Zebra Danios: 10 gal. min.
First of all, your tank is already crowded.
Secondly, I wouldn't put the angel fish in there, the zebras likely will nibble on the angels' fins, also likely the shark will too.
your tank us already overcrowded take out the bala and giant danios and you could add 2 cory cats because you dont have a bottom feeder
