SRC Member JustinK Posted April 21, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 21, 2004 Should have put your angel in a cage to let it learn to eat first before you released into the main tank. Angels are very difficult to feed in the initial stages as they like to hide in your rocks and caves and peck at the algae. What i did was to release slightly greater amount of food during feeding time so that there is a greater chance of it catching the food when competing with the rest. It managed to eat after some time, but at the expense of diatom bloom in my tank. Nothing much you can do, hopefully it will be encouraged to come out and join in the rest during feeding time when its realy hungry, but may take some time for it to do so. Meanwhile, hopefully there is enough algae in ur tank to satisfy it. Monitor to see how, if they start eating, you will realize they are greedy monsters!
