Recommendations for raising angel fry separately from parents

[El chapo]

I've separated the 10 or so remaining fry from my second pair that just barely reached the freeswimming stage and would like some advice on raising them they're currently in a 1 gallon tank and will move to a 5 gallon once they've grown a bit. then they'll return to the 55 when they're big enough I've attached some pics of the fry and the parents who are currently very unhappy and are viciously attacking the net

To raise good angels, you'll need to invest. A 10 would be my starter, til they reach about one cm, then a 20 or larger for growout. I wouldn't raise young angels in a 5 for more than 2 or 3 weeks, with good filtration and daily water changes.

I have nothing bigger than a five and don't have the funds to purchase a bigger tank

You do need a good grow out tank. So, not too small. Angels do grow up pretty fast (at least, that's my experience with angels). And surface movement is of more importance than a water flow in the other water layers.

I went from 2 tanks planned to 6 after raising angel fry, they are very prolific once you work out the issues. For growing out I used 10, 20, then 60 gallon tanks. You only have 10 fry so that will not be too bad. I used foam filters, two potted plants, in the bare bottom 10 gallon tank to start. I like the potted plants (normal aquatic plants) because that gave the fry hiding areas if needed and they help with water quality. Water changes typically every two days. What are you feeding them, they will be getting hungry soon.

I'm feeding them Hikari first bites

Good luck, my Angel fry refused to eat those, but you might have better luck. In my experience you are entering the phase with the highest mortality rate, so don't get discouraged. On my first few breeding attempts I didn't get any fry beyond a few days. The first batch to get a juvenile I only got one fish (still have him). Once I learned a few things then I started getting large batches.
