I've had one for 6 or 8 months. Very hardy and gorgeous! Posted on RC last night wondering if she's a killer? Think I may have been underfeeding. Keep well fed!

Good food and clean water is generally all it will tank. Angels tend to like established tanks so they can graze between feedings.

We've all done it, but generally you want to research a fish and what it will take to ensure it lives prior to bringing it home.

Make sure your feeding some type of algae based food(I have always used frozen formula 2 for my dwarf angels), at least 3 times a week. Never a bad idea to hang some nori or macro in there as well because angels love to graze throughout the day....definately an awesome fish....
