No to the Clown Fish. They are Marine Fish!

Angel Fish need a Tank depth of 18 inches or so!

There are loads of pinned topics about Fish keeping, Have a read. They'll tell you all you need to know!

I second that, NO NEMO fish.

What size tank is it? If its big enough then angels are nice fish.

If that is 1.5' high then angels are possible. Alternative cichlids would be rams or kribensis. There are many small colourful fish available that would look nice in your tank. Why dont you have a look at whats available in your lfs, then let us know what sort you would like?

By the way, thats 33US g or 27UK g or 120 litres. (assuming that the 1.5' is height)

thank you, how many fish does this size tank take, I have a few but there is only 5 of any real size and thats molly size??

The amount of fish you could stock would depend on which fish you want, type of filtration, and other things. A general rule is 1" of fish per gallon, but that is not to say you could put 2 18" in it .

As KentBlokey said, make sure you read the pinned topics here and in tropical chit chat.

i'm thinking of changing the middle bit where the drift wood is... to sand i', not sure i'm not sure it any of the fish in the tank need or require or even like sand but I saw a tank were somneone had it in a corner and it looked really good.
