Leave it or move it?

Post by Aquarist »

I currently have my Sister's Red tailed Shark and Angelfish in a 10 gallon uncycled tank. I also have a 45 gallon tank with 11 small tiger barbs, 2 adult golden barbs, 1 adult 4" synodontis catfish. And 2 platy's. My question is, can I move the Angelfish to the 45 gallon, temporarily? Within 2 months my Sister will be moving into a new house and taking both the Fish back wtih her into her 55 gallon, but. The Angel does look pretty cramped in the 10 gallon. But, I don't want to overstock the 45 gallon either.


Opinion's?

I bet it does--poor thing! Your sister should have planned better for her fish. I'm afraid the angel will be ripped to shreds by the barbs.

Alright, So. Unfortunately, she will probably have to stay in the 10 gallon then :/ Thanks, PP.
