Freshwater angelfish and Oscar cichlids can be kept together, but compatibility largely depends on the individual fish's temperament and the size of the tank. Oscars are generally more aggressive and territorial, especially as they mature, which can pose a threat to the more peaceful angelfish. A large aquarium with plenty of hiding spots and space can help reduce aggression, but close monitoring is essential to ensure both species can coexist safely. It's often recommended to keep them in separate tanks if aggression arises.

Is freshwater algae that grows inside a fish tank harmful to angelfish?

It is not harmful. But if you want to clean up the algae in the tank you want to get a pleco. They are very peaceful fish and will not harm angelfish. I have a pleco and three angelfish in my 35 gallon tank right now and they get along great!

Do angelfish get along with tetra fish?

Angelfish are shoaling/schooling cichlids and they should be kept in groups of around 5 or more. If there are less than 5 the weakest one will probably be bullied and will usually die from the constant harassment. Once a pair has bonded they should be kept away from other fish when they breed.

Fish that get along with goldfish and angelfish in home aquarium?

Provided your tank is large enough (48"x18"x18" minimum) you could stock many of the larger Tetras, Dwarf cichlids, etc. The main things to remember are that Angel fish (Pterophyllum sp.) are a fairly large Amazonian fish needing heaps of room and lots of water changes and they will hunt and eat smaller fish.

Do catfish get along with Oscars?

You may be able to get away with having a Catfish and an Oscar in the same tank, depending on if the Catfish is large enough that the Oscar can't eat him. Though this does not mean that they will acctually get along, cause that won't happen. A Catfish is the primary prey to the Oscar in the wild, so I don't really see them getting along.
