It's not reccomended. Goldfish are coldwater, while angels are tropical (they need warmer water). Research is essential! ;)

Welcome to the wonderful world of fishkeeping! It's fantastic that you are asking questions 1st!

Not only are their temps different but GF are extremely messy fish--meaning they poop a lot. this means they will cause another fish to live in higher ammonia then it really should.

Please read the article in our Library on cycling.

Why does this post have an ad in it?

Goldfish should live in groups, so "a goldfish" is a bad idea. And clownfish? Huh?
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi

Well, I've never said we couldn't link to our other sites. All 3 of both their posts are still about fish but I'll keep an eye on them.
