Assorted Angelfish

Care requirements

• Minimum tank 39 × 16 in (100 × 40 cm) or larger.
• Adult size 6 in (150 mm), excluding the tail
• Temperature 75–79°F (24–26°C)
• pH 6.5–7.4
• GH 4–12 dGH
• Ammonia and nitrite 0 ppm

Housing & compatibility

Give adults a tall tank for their fins. Choose calm tankmates too large to swallow and skip fin nippers. A breeding pair may claim a large part of the tank, so leave room to separate fish if needed.

Diet

Use a suitable complete cichlid food and vary the diet with appropriate frozen foods and vegetable material according to the species. Avoid overfeeding.

Hikari Sinking Cichlid Gold if the pellet size fits, with Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Brine Shrimp for variety.
