Can a 1" flameback angel go in a 14 gal biocube?

Neat fish but not a good idea, unfortunately. They need much more swimming area, live rock, and general stability than a 14 gallon biocube.

You might get away with a Cherub Angel since they stay small.

The chreub is also known as the pymgy angel so is the flameback they both have a max size of 3"


overview The African Flameback Angelfish, also known as the African Pygmy Angelfish or Orangeback Angelfish, has striking contrasts of blue and orange-yellow colors.

overview The Pygmy Angelfish is also called the Cherubfish, Cherub Angelfish, or Atlantic Pygmy Angelfish. It is a brilliant sapphire-blue with orange highlights to the face.

Are they the same fish? I don't want to hurt it. I have Tonga branch live rock to there is plenty of hiding places.

14 is to small. Growth depends on how much the fish eats and how fast it grows (like people, some fish grow fast some grow slow)

The real issue here is swimming room.
