Ok, in the tank I linked to (the 55g) which is currently housing the Angels...
Could I get one more Angel, three Bristlenose plecos, keep the two Apple snails (and add one more) and have some Ameca splendens?
I've read that the Ameca can be nippy so I'm afraid of housing them with Angels but thought it would be worth asking about.

I had thought about some smaller schooling fish but if they are small enough to bother/eat the Angels will (especially if they have color) but the Angels stick together for the most part which is fine and I have a friend with Amecas.
The Amecas are livebarers which would provide some live food for the Angels (right?) but the adults should be big enough to not get too much crud from the Angels?

What do you guys think?
