http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=question-on-new-36-gallon-#1
Just upgraded from a 10 gal to a 36 gal. 36 came w/2 angelfish and 3 emerald green corey catfish. I added from my 10, 2 zebra danios, 2 neon tetras, 2 gold skirt tetras, 1 powder blue dwarf gourami and 1 pleco. Added 2 lamp eye tetras, 2 long finned red minor tetras and 2 silver hatchetfish. Tried to follow the "inch per gallon" rule, but have read that doesn't apply w/angels. Have I gotten too many other fish? Have noticed just a bit of chasing from one of the angels and I am concerned. Also, does the "inch per gallon" rule apply w/bottom feeders?

the angels will see the neons as food and they will eat them in time. Try keeping one type of tetra but in a larger group, they lok more natural and will colour up better.
Any fish added to the tank are included in the one inch per gallon rule.

your tank is slightly overcrowded...try to cut down your number of fish...
