Verdict:not recommended
- Behaviour: with caution
- Water: ranges do not overlap
Why
The temperatures do not overlap: goldfish need 18–22 °C, angelfish 24–28 °C. There is no water that suits both fish at once, so keeping them together is not recommended.
Water and size
| Parameter | Goldfish | Angelfish | Shared range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Temperature | 18 – 22 °C (64 – 72 °F) | 24 – 28 °C (75 – 82 °F) | none ranges do not overlap |
| Water pH | 6 – 8 | 6 – 7 | 6 – 7 ranges overlap |
| Water dH | 5 – 19 | 5 – 10 | 5 – 10 ranges overlap |
| Size in aquarium | 10 – 30 cm (3.9 – 12 in) | 15 cm (5.9 in) | |
| Required aquarium volume | from 300 L (79 gal) | from 200 L (53 gal) | |
| Keeping | Schooling (usually from 5–6 individuals and more) | Schooling (usually from 5–6 individuals and more) | |
| Temperament | Semi-peaceful (dangerous to smaller ones) | Semi-peaceful (dangerous to smaller ones) | |
| Swimming level | middle level | middle level |
This is a general estimate: fish of the same species differ in character. Tank volume is given for each species separately — two species together need at least the larger of the two, and usually more.
