Yeah, he's the concern for me too. I think he's too big for a breeder net. I'll probably just have to make sure I add the krib at a time when I'll be around to keep a VERY close eye on the situation. I've seen the angel really attack other fish once - I tried adding some harlequin rasboras. One didn't make it. I don't know if it would be different for the krib since harlequin rasboras occupy pretty much the same territory as the angel...

You can place the Kribensis in the net, along with some light decorations to make him/her feel comfortable.

Oh, I see.  Will that help me get a feel for how the angel will react? I feel like I need to do something with this krib. She looks so lonely in the 5 gallon tank all by herself. |

Ok, cool. I'm going to have to try it out at some point. Eventually the krib babies in the 30 gallon will need somewhere else to grow out while I figure out what to do with them, so I'll need the 5 gallon for that.

Alright, here goes nothing. I think I will move the krib from the 5 gallon to a net box in the 50 gallon. The Flying Fox that's in the 30 looks horrible. The krib parents have been really hard on him while guarding fry, so I'm going to move him to the 5 gallon for now.

Hey everyone! Sorry I disappeared for a while.
Just a quick update on the female krib I moved to my 50 gallon that has the angel fish. Everything has been completely fine. The angel barely even registered the addition of a new fish. The krib has settled in quite nicely. Her color improved the day I released her from the net box. I only had her in there overnight. She looked miserable in it and the tank is so tall I don't think the angel fish even noticed it was there.
Yay!
