Problems with angelfish aggression?
so ppl out there that bought their aquariums where did you all get em. I ask because me and my wife are looking to get a new 120 gallon and a 350+ gallon in the future and i'm looking into companies. Companies that ship in the US please.
10 gallon aquarium. 6 rummynose tetra, 3 oto catfish, 1 dwarf blue gourami, 5 ghost shrimp, 1 mystery snail. Would you guys consider this an overstocked tank? I'm looking to reboot my aquarium and would like to have this assortment of fish. I will be over-filtering my tank and providing plenty of bubbles/oxygenation, as well as a lot of open swimming space and live plants. I personally feel that this is an acceptable stock, but it's borderline and nothing else could be added. I'd of course keep up with regular water changes as well, of about 40%/week.
Well, to each their own I suppose... but I consider that highly overstocked. I'd never keep that many fish in a 10 gallon, no matter what size they are. Even for 1 inch fish I believe that's far too much. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. IMO.
My grow out endler tank has 20 fish with an 80% water change every day no deaths or issues yet but they'll be gone in a week. I would say it's pushing slightly. The tetras and gourami would probably like more room to swim. I don't have any experience in aggressive gourami, (I have 4 big babies in with my angels) but I think I've read that dwarfs can be aggressive. Freshwater angelfish. Id just keep an eye on little fish syndrome lol. Fighting angelfish are hard to see.
I'm not one to talk though, I have one tank that'll be over stocked someday if I don't get another tank down the road. I have 5 little fantail Goldies in a 55 gallon to grow out with.
Opinions will vary, but i will say not at all. I kept a Male Betta, 10 Rasbora Tetras, 10 Zebra Danios, 3 Oto Cats, 5 Red Cherry Shirmp, and 3 Mystery Snails in a 10 Gallon.
I really shouldnt count the Cherry Shrimp because by the time of the photo above, i think i was down to 2 or so as i later discovered my Betta was eating them.

I moved four smaller angels into my community tank and the larger established angels in there killed three of them in a matter of days so it's not the fact that angels cannot inflinct too much physical damage but can stress new comers to a point of dying. I've now put the large angel into solitary confinement to see if she will calm down.

MuggzyDubzy hahahaa. That's totally normal in my opinion. A bit of fighting or chasing and some peaceful times is about normal. Here's what I'm dealing with. My koi angel is in time out in a different tank now because he went nuts and wouldn't stop attacking every other angel in the tank. Even turning sideways to attack and driving the other angels into a corner and still not stopping the attack. It went on for 4 hours until I moved him to another tank and all is fine again. Everyone was dime sized when I bought them and some are close to quarter size while others are just above nickel size and I dunno if it was puberty or what but like overnight it wants to kill every other angelfish in the tank and won't stop attacking. I will try to put him back in in a week or so, but I've never seen that level of aggression before except from a mated pair and even then they'd stick to their territory and chase away intruders. For some reason this dude isn't paired, and going out of his way to attack everyone else and keep them in one corner of the tank. And it's not small tank. It's 72 gallons and has 6 angelfish that are quarter sized or smaller. Never dealt with this before in 30 years of off and on angelfish keeping. Never had one act like that.

John Burgess yeah I have two angelfish and the bigger one was sick and in my smaller tank and my silver angelfish tried to kill him and was doing the same thing that you were saying but he just went crazy and he wouldn't stop him and pushing him in the corner. So I quarantine my angel fish that was sick for a week and then I put them in the tank again and now the angel fish that was sick is constantly attacking the silver one now so it's the opposite

They are more nippy than the African cichlids. They are also hungry like all the time, insane hungry. They seem smarter than other fish I have had, more personality and awareness. They stress me out nipping, but Im a new angel fish keeper, they don't hurt each other like you are saying they are tough. I am thinking about a divider though. The bigger one is ramming the smaller ones during feed time, and I don't know how bad that is yet. So far everyone is healthy and out swimming close to each other, fins are ok. They seem more aggressive the closer I get to the tank. When lights go out they are chill. I have 3 aquariums now and I think that's enough, these Angels are like having 4 new insane kids to feed, they are more active than I imagined a more docile and gentle creature. These are like insane Amazon discus, more like. I'd say all the other fish except Piranha, Pacu, Barracuda or Oscars, Eels those are all more aggressive if they want to kill each other, otherwise no they tend to get along. I think Angels are more aggro than African cichlids to each other, so far and never seen so much nipping behavior ever, from any other species and I have kept a lot of them, over 30 years. The most docile fish I ever had, a giant purple Goby I named Bobby, one of the coolest fish ever.

@ronaldable8223
@ronaldable8223 4 года назад
Just keep it simple, just treat them like a house pet bird being bad. When they started fighting, they all get punished by turning of the light an cover the tank up with a very dark blanket so no light get threw for the reminder of the day. Fish is very intelligent, they will figure it out. An no more aggressive.
@artgutierrez6568
@artgutierrez6568 2 года назад
That doesn't work. Fish are fish. You cannot program the instinct out of them. What's the point in covering up the tank every time you blanket the aquarium? May as well just keep it covered 24/7 because the fish will always go back to what they do the moment the blanket is removed.

I have two angelfish that are great friends and I just introduced a new young angelfish. My chill fish could care less that the new guy is there while my big boy is being super aggressive towards him which is crazy because he is also so calm and would never hurt a fly. But now he is being crazy and trying to beat this little guy up. I am going to keep an eye out and probably get another new one soon so new guy can have a buddy.

They don't mate for life , during the egg laying and hatching the females usually blame the male fish for the fishkeeper removing the eggs . Think of it like they're no longer a couple

@christophergallagher3845
@christophergallagher3845 2 года назад
Could be many reasons but one possibility is the agressor is the female and testing the male to see if it's suitable to mate Could be your water condition dropped slightly stressing the weaker one it makng it an easy target Hop you found a solution

6 or 7 for sure not; I could spot about 11 or so in there. I've got a 55 gall with 6 Angels and they constantly chase around each other unless they eat of course. That's how they are. A well planted tank helps to provide hiding spots for the bullied ones.

@kennethbryan5563
@kennethbryan5563 4 года назад
I know why they died, first, the stronger angel fish killed the other because it got jealous, after its tank mate died, it got depressed and felt guilty over what it did, it resorted to excessive drinking habits to cope up with its depression which later cause its death.

PLEASE REPLY SOON! i have had a female angel fish who had a whole bunch of babies with a male angel fish. the male ended up eating ALL the babies and eventually died from getting caught in the filter. a while later i decided to get two young angel fish pretty small but not small enough for the adult to swallow. the two are always together. but now the adult is charging and nipping at them! do you know why or how to stop this?
@christophergallagher3845
@christophergallagher3845 2 года назад
The spot she laid her eggs would've been her territory , if a new couple mating and lingering about the original fish egg spawn location she probably trying to chase them away from her house as they'll be a threat if she lays more eggs

Yes too much water current will stress them out and exhaust them , they're built to float in calm swampy water not keep up pace with river water . I have same issue with my internal filter so I got a piece of black 20 mm electrical conduit pipe about 2 foot long and drilled small holes every coupl inches to disperse the water more even and less of a jet till I could get an external filter with much more gentle water flow outlet

I would advise against putting goldfish with angelfish, tetras, or any other tropical fish. Goldfish are more comfortable in colder water, so putting them together would stress the goldfish out a lot.
