I have
2 Clown loaches
1 Albino Redfined Shark
4 Platies
1 Red Swordtail
1 Albino pleco
I was given 2 black Anglefish about the size of a twoonie and was wondering if they were compatible with my Clown Loaches and Swordtail?

They will be fine if you have a 50+ gallon tank with heavy plant cover. Each Clown Loach will reach a foot in length (but they grow slowly). You may see some aggression from the Shark towards the Angels, but it will not be a big deal.

You shouldn't have any compatibility problems, but that needs to be a 55 gallon tank or larger and even at that the clown loaches will outgrow it in a few years depending on current size.

Loaches are fin nippers but Angels are tough. Just be sure to watch them and make sure they don't lay eggs (are they male and female)? If they do, once the babies are born you'll have to put them in a baby "holding tank" that hangs inside the big tank, or they'll be eaten by the other fish. Good luck!

Angel Fish are usually none aggressive unless they are large
