Can I keep one angel fish in a 29 gallon tank?

For awhile you can, then you may need to get a larger tank so it doesnt pick on other fish smaller then the Angel.

I had a single Angel in my 29 with a couple cory cats and 6 blackskirts. Everyone got along great.

I have 2 in a 29 with 3 Yellow Labs. The labs are on the gravel and the Angels stay at the top. Works out well.

Many a pair of angels have raised their families in a 29.

A true pair or single would work just fine.

cool...my dad wants one lol. I've got two 75s with non-sissy fish (sorry angel-keepers) and then the 29.

no need to upgrade to a bigger tank; a 29 is plenty big for angels.
