Angel fish (Pterophylum scalare) are one of the most tropical fish coming from the Amazon. Goldfish (Carassius auratus) are cold water fish. They both need totally different condtions and water qualities. So the answer is they could live together provided the water is kept warm and pure enough for the Angelfish but they will not do well.
No i wouldn't recommend it.... goldfishes live in cold waters and angel fish live in warm water so that wouldn't really be a good match up

They are totally different species requiring totally different water conditions they should NEVER be in the same tank together. Goldfish are coldwater fish (they come from China). Goldfish water should be kept below 70F and have a medium hardness and a neutral pH of around 7 to 7.2. Angelfish are very tropical fish (they come from the Amazon) their water should be around 80F very soft, and have an acid pH of around 6.5 to 6.8.


Sometimes they do but sometimes they will be aggressive to each other and be slow and clumsy. so be careful if your thinking of putting them in a tank together

It's always been my understanding that you shouldn't pair goldfish with any other type of fish. Apparently, goldfish secrete certain oils that aren't healthy for other fish. You can find several varieties of goldfish, however... there are many with long, beautiful fins that are similar to angelfish.

It depends if you feed them twice or three times a day. If not, the angelfish may eat the guppies fancy fins and it's guppy fry. You may also separate them. So remember to be responsible on feeding them. By Stephen Ma Jit Chi.

The Story:

I have a 75 gallon aquarium that is stocked with angelfish, among others, which is kept at 78 degrees.

I have had the occasional 'feeder' goldfish meant for consumption survive and prosper in the tank.

Absolutely not! Goldfish need a tank all to themselves, because they eat different foods and need different conditions.

Angel fish are semi aggressive fish. They may have a tendancy to pick on the gold fish. Also, angelfish need tropical warm water to survive. Gold fish like cold water. I would not put them together. If the Angel is big enough it will eat your goldfish.
