I’ve tested my water each day and the nitrates stay around a steady 20ppm, baffled by this I tested my water straight from the tap, my tap water is also reading at 20ppm. I don’t think prime negates nitrates or ammonia permanently when treating water, just chlorine/heavy metals in the water. My...

Bbs is the best food for angelfish fry until they are old enough to be weaned off and introduced to dry foods. I have read that something called micro worms are great for them as well but have never tried

I’ve been cleaning the gravel each time. I just checked my api test kit and it’s expired, I’m not sure if this affects the readings or not but since this post I’ve performed a 90% water change while removing all the artificial plants I’ve added to the tank as a precaution. I’m thinking my...

I have 1month old angelfish fry I’m rearing in a 29 gallon tall before they are moved to the 55. Everything has been going great, no die offs, healthy appetites, consistent 50% water changes every 4 days with gravel siphoning. Three days ago I started experiencing 2-3 angels die for the first...

Funny enough here is my male bn flashing his fins for the ladies

Would you like some dip to go with it 😆?

Making some custom repashy that I’ll dehydrate into jerky for my bn plecos. I blended (all frozen and then thawed) baby brine shrimp, krill, blood worms, tubifex worms, daphnia, freshwater mysis shrimp, seaweed, and zucchini with a splash of garlic juice and let it set. It’ll be cut into long...

Nothing read within dangerous levels, my nitrates did read at .25 ppm from the water I removed while siphoning/the weekly water change but this isn’t unusual for this time of week and I had also performed a 60% water change. I’m not sure his age but he’s at least three years old given is size.

The red along is back? That’s a natural coloration

If what you’re referring to is this species of tetra below then yes they do fine with angels. I had quite a few in my 60 gallon with my adult angels and never had any issues with aggression or fin nipping. They like to school and can get to a decent size so be sure your tank is large enough...

I recently adopted this angelfish from a local Facebook rehoming group. He’s in quarantine with two other juveniles for about four days now. I did my water change this morning and noticed he was breathing heavily, tested my water from my drain buckets and parameters read normal. Came home to...

I've got the blue on order but sadly amazon likes to take their merry time nowadays. These angels caught me off gaurd with the egg laying. I used the peroxide as it was what I had on hand, but don't worry I'll be using the blue for any future artificial egg rearing. So far the eggs havent shown...

I appreciate the advice and will take it into account if I decide to raise angels on the regular, however letting the parents rear their young is not a possibility at this point. They live in a community tank with two other angels and a mixture of other fish (pleco and cories). The eggs will...

My first batch with these two. Two questions, is my bubbler too close to the eggs and how many drops of hydrogen peroxide should I use to ward off fungus?

Please be warned that the photo I’m going to show ain’t for the easily queasy. The fungus is clearing away but I think her injury is too severe to heal properly. Does anyone have recommendations on humane/painless forms of euthanasia? Even if her illness clears I very much doubt her ability to...

The api requires partial 25% water changes between doses. He's only been dropping small pinches at night for the cories since the angel cant eat. Aeration is a go as the filter is a sponge filter but I can lend a bubble wand for increased aeration. I bought salt for him but have yet to use it as...

My fathers angelfish is getting worse. I'll post photos of the progression of whatever this is, with the last photo taken from this evening. I really need help diagnosing what this is as I'm at a loss. Water tests come back normal, even took to my LFS and nothing read wrong. Water changes and...

It seems they all treat bacterial to some degree accordingly to the packaging ive already started treating with kanaplex the entire tank. The white spot appeared suddenly and then within a day it progressed to what it is now. There is a sort of filmy/fluffy residue around the damaged tissue.

Alright I’ve got some more photos of her as well a a pic of the back of the kanaplex
