About the Assorted Angelfish
Name: Angelfish
Max Size: Angelfish can grow up to 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter, excluding their long, trailing fins.
Water Parameters: Angelfish thrive in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions with a pH range of 6.5-7.5. The water temperature should be maintained between 75-82Β°F (24-28Β°C).
Diet: Angelfish are omnivores and accept a varied diet. They can be fed high-quality pellets, flakes, and live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, and small insects.
Temperament: Generally peaceful, but they can become territorial during breeding. Provide them with enough space and hiding places to minimize aggression.
Tank Setup: Decorate the aquarium with tall plants, driftwood, and rocks to mimic their natural habitat, the Amazon River. Angelfish appreciate a planted tank with open swimming areas. Adequate filtration and regular water changes are essential for their well-being.
Compatibility: Angelfish can be kept with other peaceful community fish of similar size. Avoid keeping them with overly aggressive or fin-nipping species. Tank mates that occupy different levels of the aquarium will help create a harmonious community.
Behavior: Angelfish are known for their graceful swimming and unique, triangular shape. They may form pairs and exhibit interesting courtship and breeding behaviors.
Fun Fact: Angelfish are cichlids, and their distinctive appearance, with long fins and a vertical body, adds an elegant touch to freshwater aquariums.
