Raising angelfish fry is rewarding but requires proper care to ensure their survival. Here are key steps to help your fry thrive:
1. Separate Fry from Parents
Move the fry to a separate tank before they hatch to protect them from predators and provide a controlled environment.
2. Choose the Right Tank
Use a spacious tank for the fry to swim and grow, starting with a smaller water volume.
3. Use a Gentle Filter
Install a small filter to provide oxygen without strong currents that may harm the fry.
4. Maintain Water Quality
Temperature: Keep water at 78–80°F.
pH: Maintain 6.8–7.0.
Ammonia/Nitrite: Ensure levels are zero.
5. Prevent Parasites
Regular water changes and tests help keep the tank clean and parasite-free.
6. Feed Properly
Feed baby brine shrimp or micro worms twice daily. Avoid overfeeding to maintain water cleanliness.
With proper care and attention, you can successfully raise angelfish fry into healthy adults.
