    That small of a tank it may be best to add them at the same time actually.
    If one gets in there first and establishes a territory he might become a bully when the second one is added. I am not sure how territorial and aggressive the bicolor is, but I know my coral beauty was a ***** to my flame angel when I added it. Luckily my tank is big enough they could get some separation and eventually they worked things out. You are not so fortunate with your 29.

    Yes, I'd u want to add those two fish (or any aggressive fish) to the bio cube, add them last and together.

    Bicolor Angel's need much more room then a 29 cube, not trying to bust your bubble, I just hate to see fish all cramped up in such a small area.
    Do the right thing and keep it out of the cube.

    Id be cautious with the bicolor angle if you plan on having any corals.. I had one for a few years and it never picked at any and then one day after adding new corals he went crazy and almost killed all my zoas.. Lovely looking fish but they can turn nasty.. And I wouldn't add it to my 29g thats to small for that fish..
