Truly stunning with excellent parinting instinct! --- Here's a bit about angelfish~ Angelfish are omnivorous andwill feed at the surface or mid-water as well as forage along the bottom in search of worms and small crustaceans. These fish prefer a meat-based diet so choose a good quality food specially formulated cichlids such as flakes or pellets, and supplement the diet with live foods including bloodworms, brine shrimp, white worms, crustaceans and small insects. Be sure to also include some plant matter such as algae wafers or fresh vegetables cut into small pieces. Feed your angelfish once or twice a day, and feed only as much as they can eat in 2 to 3 minutes. ---- Maintaining Your Aquarium Regular weekly water changes and general maintenance are essential, including replacing your filter media and testing your aquarium water to ensure it stays within the appropriate parameter ranges for your angelfish. Test your aquarium water every week using an aquarium water test kit purchased from your local aquarium supply shop. ---- Health Issues that Can Occur in Freshwater Angelfish There are a number of conditions that can affect freshwater angelfish. 1) Fin Rot is caused by fluctuating water conditions and will attack the edges of your angelfish's fins then begin to move inward towards the body. This bacterial infection may be treated by changing out 20-50% of the tank's water at least 2 times a week. If this does not work contact your veterinarian about possible antibiotic treatment. 2) White Spot Disease, or Ich, can be caused by stress resulting from poor tank conditions. Caused by the protozoan parasite, Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, this condition leads to white, itchy spots on the fishs body, lack of appetite and lethargy. It will be necessary to quarantine the affected fish in a separate tank. Speak to your veterinarian on how to set the conditions of your quarantined fish's tank, to help accelerate the protozoans lifespan and treat this condition. 3) Dropsy can occur as a symptom of a compromised immune system and is characterized by a lack of appetite, bloated appearance with sticking out scales, rapid breathing and protruding eyes. Contact your vet for an antibacterial medication and further instructions on how to adjust your tank's conditions in order to treat dropsy in your freshwater angelfish. If you are planning to keep freshwater angelfish be sure to keep the contact information of an exotic animal veterinarian in your area handy. If you see signs that your fish are not as healthy as they should be, contact your local vet with training in the care of fish for advice and medications whenever necessary. **** For multiple purchases please message me to see what can fit in the same box to help save you on shipping expenses!!! **** Additional insulation avaliable for a small fee. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ IF IT IS COLD in your area 72 and 96 hour heat packs are available for purchase to ensure your package arrives in the best possible condition.
