Eibli Angelfish Diet
Omnivore- will eat both herbivore and carnivore preparations. They eagerly accept dried and frozen foods, and several feedings per day are suggested.
Angelfish
Freshwater Angelfish belong to the Cichlidae family, and come in a variety of color forms, and fin lengths. These popular aquarium fish originally came from the river systems of South America.
Angelfish usually pair up and start showing spawning behaviour between the ages of 8 and 12 months, but for more delicate, slow-growing colour forms, it may take longer.
Angelfish are from the cichlid family and can be very aggressive at times. Experience will tell you that there is a time and a place for angelfish in the community tank. As with most large fish, angels develop a personality.

Characterized by striking shapes, colors, and personalities, many are aggressive and shouldn't be combined with others. Common aquarium cichlids include freshwater angelfish, Oscars, and discus.
Guppies, Angelfish, High-Fin Tetras, Sailfin Mollies), fish with similar shapes (i.e. Gourami, Dwarf Gourami, Female Bettas).

Mouthbrooders will dig out the gravel and the female will deposit eggs in the depression. The eggs are fertilized and then taken in the mouth until they hatch. Angelfish will deposit eggs against plants, such as amazon swords.
The fish inhabit the lower and middle regions of a tank, and cannot be kept together with small fish. The tank should be well filtered since the fish eat large amounts of food, and pollute a lot. They can be combined with angelfish or larger catfish.
