I've been keeping fish for over 30 years. From gouramis to goldfish to a full reef tank, and here I am with my 75 freshly stocked with angels because we always come back to what we love the most
The problem with these videos is every episode I wanna go out and get the fish you're talking about. 😅😂
Ha ha I hope we don’t get you in trouble!!
Fr lol

Angelfish was my sole reason to keep an aquarium back in my childhood. Their personality is simply amazing.
I have a golden angelfish in my 60 gallon. My sister started calling it Jonathan, so that’s its name now. He isn’t a problem to any other fish, and he goes crazy when I bust out the food!

I got the best beginner advice.
1: Fall in love in a spicies
2: Do your research about that spicies
3: Get your equipment and start up your tank
4: Let the tank cyckle
5: We now head back to step 1 and make a wish come true #BuyYourDreamFish
My point is there's no such thing as an beginner fish.
People go get what ever fish you dream of, just remember fish are not an display item but a pet.
Last words from me is being an aquatist is not a hobby but a life stile.
Much love from me to rest of the fish fam. ❤️
I agree with you but I do think there are fish that can be considered beginner fish because they are easier to take care of and more tolerant of mistakes that beginners make, like temperature and water parameters. I would consider bettas, goldfish, guppies, zebra danios, mollies, platies, and corydoras all beginner fish.
♥️ Ty!
@@danielkim1657 Thats why one og the steps is to make research first. 🙂
WOW I Know.
Angels are FANTASTIC! My dad and I started breeding them for local pet stores when I was 8 and stayed with it until I graduated high school. So easy! So beautiful! We had one called Big Bertha who grew to be 8" long from tip to tip and she gave us thousands of eggs! She had her preferred mate, but she would breed with any willing male. She would lay eggs in batches of 200-500 at a time and for a while, we just couldn't keep up with her as nearly all of them would develop, hatch and survive.
I love your channel, I particularly like that you give factual information that is actually correct unlike so many other people! 💕 from the UK x
My favorite tank setup that I have had was a planted community tank that housed 1 angelfish, a school of harlequin rasbora and a school or corries. When I get the space and money to do so I will be doing it again but in a bigger tank so I can have big schools of the fish. That tank was so peaceful, relaxing and fun to watch.
I love you guys! So informative, you really learn about the hobby, all the key important things we need to know to be a good fish keeper, and yet simply explained, fun and humorous, thank you!
I LOVE your channel! So glad to see you so active again! I love your ten things lists! Keep them coming!
I am a big fan of angelfish. They're so majestic and have a lot of attitude. They're hardy and easy to keep. I had a nice group of 8 in a 75 gallon and they worked out very well. I will be setting up another angel tank when I get back stateside.
Angelfish were in my first aquarium and I still favor them. Thanks for another Ten Things fix!
I just love you and I get all my fish information from you. I appreciate your real and honest sense of humor.
My angelfish is a real bastard.
Mine too😁😁
Why? What happened
Sounds nice😂
Mine too! My loach used to keep him in order
I had a angelfish named blitz he died by jumping from his fish tank when i was feeding him he was on a shelf so he hit the top of the shelf then died. When I took him out he started moving so i put him in a quarantine tank then he died again...rip blitz
These are some great tips, I'm enjoying the top 10 series! Angelfish always look great in a planted tank 👌😀
Great video once again. Thanks for sharing 😊👍🏼. Angels are soo enjoyable to watch around the tank .. thay have some many awesome types
This is my fav channel now... #lovefrom INDIA
Angelfish are cool because they originally came from soft water, and because of how long they have been in the hobby they have slowly been bred to do better in hard water. Because of this they can handle almost all water hardness, and a wide range of PH.
As a child my Dad always told me those "dangly bits" are what fish fingers came from. 😂
🐒🐒🐒
I’ve got two angels in a 75 gallon with two gouramis, some serpae tetras, white skirt tetras, and some Cory Doras. They all get along just fine.
Is great to have you back thank you so much sharing keep up the good work
One of the best videos about Angelfish, most of all for beginners: nice job!
Well done KG! Picking up some angels soon!
Enjoyed this video so much. I'm new in the fish hobby and I decided to go with angelfish. I
Love BLACK ANGELS, wild style angels and ALTUM ANGELS !
Jet black angels are the true black beauties.
A friend in my local fishy family group breeds Angels and GMA (Geophagus Miribilis Aripuana) together. GMA is a peaceful Geophagus, earth eater Cichlid. They work well together. Just have to care for the tank well and watch if they are breeding at the same time. They tend to corral other fish to the other side of the tank when they have eggs or babies to protect, but don’t fight. Our friend uses 90g tanks, pfs substrate, couple fake plants. Peaceful dither fish are helpful as well.
Another great video, guys. 👏 Thank you both. My boyfriend is considering platinum angels for our 105g. He’s just trying to decide on a peaceful schooling dither fish to go with them. I’ve had some suggestions, but this is his project. This is the one tank I have a hard time getting in to for cleaning. Too high and deep for me. ;-)
Dangly things... hahaha! Keep the 10 things coming. I look forward to it every week.
My Dad always said that's where fish fingers come from 😂
Thats nicely made video about fish. Angels are awesome, work well with my rams and swordtails,while also keep guppy numbers in check.
I love my angelfish!!!! They're great!! And so much personality!!!
Angels are my absolute favorite !
i have 4 angelfish ,and one of them is a bully. i love them. my favorite fish. sending love from Denmark, and soon i hope my bubbles shirt is comming home to me
Like the content and format. Subscribed!
love the video... forgot to mention they will lay on a heater and also filter intakes as a possable first attempt
Finally got my first pair to spawn!!! After a year of watching them grow from dime size, they are now getting ready to drop their second lay.. first turned white, hoping for successful spawn this time!!!
I’ve moved them into their own tank, (20 gal breeder) with a 20 gal “nursery” for baby’s, with 🤞 .
Thanks for the vid guys!!! Enjoying your channel a lot since getting back into the hobby!! Wish we had this interweb back then!!! 🤷🏻♂️🤪😁
🙏🐠💙💯
Awesome video Lisa and John. Thank you for the info :)
Thanks Denny!
Your editing is awesome. Very informational video thanks
Would love to see a more in depth video about angels. Wild type vs. domestic, are any varieties harder to keep than others? (I've heard albinos don't live as long as others) I have a 75 gallon with a 35 gallon sump that for 14 years is angelfish dedicated. Discus are the most colorful fish, but angels are the most elegant!
So loving this series! 💜💜
Thank you Candi😘
Watching this series while having dinner is absolute treat. 😊 Btw Can i Mix Angels with Discus? I have a 200 gallon planted tank Cycling.
You can but I probably wouldn't.
great video as usual. In many other sites they said we should put angel fish in a schooling of at least 6 fishes. I've just bought a 70 Gallons aquarium. I intend to put 6 angels. What other schooling fishes (red nose, tetras..) and / or bottom dwellers can I populate in 70 gallonq so everybody gets happy?
Really love this style of video
Just set up 4ft tank now i know what going in it.all the best.
When I get a taller tank I will most likely get some more angelfish, the one I have right now is really too shallow and is pretty full with the fish I have now. I do really like them, do have to watch what filters you have though. My grandma lost several of her angelfish when she got a new filter that was pretty strong and kept catching them in the current. It constantly flipped them over and into the sides and bottom of the tank. The other fish were fine but the angels didn't handle it well.
got myself a 29 gallon tank lined up and THOUGHT i was doing two geo cichlids two peacock cichlids and three red hook silver dollars. I dont think i have the space it would take but luckily angelfish were on the list of fish i wanted at some point while i was shopping around so im gonna go back that route and add some stuff to that
I luv these fish. They r so different and beautiful. They r so interesting.
questions-
what kind of tank maintenence is required? ph water level? how often to change the water, good flora to put in the tank? i've never really had fish before so i'd like to know how to care for
My angel is in a 29. I had issues with a rainbow shark and a Siamese Algae Eater. Both in recommendations from local fish store. Now it’s with 8 x ray tetras, a clown pleco, a dwarf gourami and 2 rainbow fish with no issues, outside of getting a bit selfish during feeding time
I have two of them, I used to have 6. The two killed the other 4, since then they go after all the fish in the tank fin nipping. I recently added a couple of Bay Snooks, they even try and nip them. Not very successfully but they try. I would not class them as a beginner fish, unless you you are only having a couple by themselves.
I have 8 platinum angels in my 6ft diy 90 gallon acrylic tank. First fish I ordered online. All arrived in great condition and they are growing so fast. Beautiful fish and it’s comical how they come to the front of the tank begging for food. Your right about food. They eat everything and anything
I LOVE platinum Angels
Dude, my first fish was an angelfish. Still my favorite fish of all time. He was an altum that had the red eyes. ( if youve never heard of this trait, look it up. Its like a pair of sunglasses built into thier eyes. )
Inotropic informations ... Excelent
I kept Altum for a long time very nice fish
Can you guys do a top 10 about electric blue Acara and or smaller tank mates like Cory cats, bristlenose pleco, etc
I didn’t watch the whole thing but I agree with everything in this video. I used to own a blushing angelfish many years ago and he/she lived for 5 years
You guys are so good and funny! 💯👏👏😂💯
Sir, what kind of filtaretion we need for angels, and many more, please make a detailed video on it
Hey, watched a lot of your vids and its definitely helped so much!! I'm looking at getting gold rams and other dwarf cichlid. Can you help?
Hi John and Lisa, great video. I am looking for some advice...I have Bolivian arms, honey gourami and a male betta and I would like to add an angelfish or 3 to a 53g tank. The community also consists of neon tetra, harlequin rasbora, rummy nose tetra and cory cats. Would angelfish destroy a planted tanks? What are your thoughts? Thanks
thanks John and Lisa!
LOVE this series! Keep it up guys! 😄
God bless~ † 😁🙌
Yes, John, your sister would love an angel fish tank!! Geez!!!
Hmmm...I'm sure we can remedy that and I'm always excited to start a new tank up ❤ let's plan a shopping trip and get you a cycled tank soon 😊
I just got an Angelfish. He's with Danios and White Skirt tetras. There has been no conflict yet.
I have a 75 gallon tank and I keep 2 juvenile and 4 mid size angelfish also 4 swordtails 1 male and 3 females, and my filter is a emperor 400 bio wheel my angelfish always fight and chase each other but their fights are not too fierce and they do not attack just one at the same time but
Is my tank big enough ?
Ty guys
I'm planning on getting angelfish in my 55 gallon tank I'm unsure of how many to get I was thinking 6 would be fine and with 6 of them in there how many more fish can I include to make it a community tank?
Hi, a quick question, would mollies work well with Angel fish? I have a 29 gallon tank and so far 3 mollies in it. Thank you in advance.
Beautiful fish, would love to have angel tank someday ! 😁
Hi there,
Could anyone advise if it's possible to keep White Cloud Mountain Minnoes and Angelfish together?
If yes, which temperature would be the best compromise?
I love this tfs😃
Thanks for those amazing tips. Really insightful. How safe is an Angelfish in a carpet tank? would they destroy the plants?
i dont keep angelfish YET, im getting a 32 gallon angel community in a few months, but from what ive read they seem to be perfectly plant safe
I love angels. I have always wanted some. I have 2 that are spotted pearl, their scales are really sparkly and pop more than the others did. I have one koi, or calico black, isk it's blues and it looks brindled with black, yellow. Then the other is a double black. It had one dangly fin that is yellow.
I need help with my angelfish. I checked on it today and i notcied he had its fins completly bit off as of know its breathing and trung to swim but it stays facing down the whole time what do i do?
What about SHRIMP for tank mates ?
My "fish hotel" is planted but if angles look the will find my shrimp.
I have amano and cherry red.
BTW love the video and very helpful.
I got three small angel fish and added them to my 20 gallon tetra community tank about two months ago but one of them isn't growing and gets chased away by the other two that have obviously doubled is size and are doing well . so my question is, is there something wrong with the third angel ? And what can I do about it ?
love from bangladesh and in my opinion is this channel is the best channel for fish keepers
Good information in a funny format laughed more than a couple times
I have a 4ft tank (275 litres) and I really love Angels. I would like 6-8 Angels and set up breeding areas separated by plants/hidden areas. would this be ok to have so many Angels. Many thanks.
I have two beautiful young Angel fish in quarantine that I picked up 7 days ago. My plan was to add them to my heavily planted 55 gallon tank that is currently home to a school of Columbian tetras, orange laser corydoras, and a 5.5 inch Electric Blue Acara (who is a sweetheart). Today, I've discovered that my two angels are a breeding pair and are already laying eggs. Will I run into aggression issues if I add a breeding pair of angels to my 55 gallon community tank? I worry more about my Acara being attacked then vice versa. I do have a second 50 gallon planted tank which has just tetras and corys that I can add one of the angels to if it's advisable to split them up.
Love the 10 things, I also kind of miss "John's world!" 😉
Allo, is it safe to keep 1 or 2 angelfish in 10 gallon tank? No other fish or maybe add some guppies in it. Im still in 1week cycling the tank so im still thinking about what to keep. Thanks!
Hi, I have 3 marble angels. 2 of them keeps on liplocking with each other. They've been doing that for a week now. Should I interfere?
I love angelfish!!!
I have a 30liter aquarium planted ..and was thinking of getting 2 angel fish ....but now I don't know if is the best fish for my tank ....any advice? thank you
I love angel fish they are amazing😊😊😊
Any tips on keeping clown plexus and amano shrimp with my betta?
I'm going to get my first aquarium maybe next year I'm doing some research, I'm planing to buy 3 angel fish if a get lucky and on of them is a female and it pairs whit one of the males duh! will make the other male more agrasive or problematic?
Thank you
Is it okay if I only get one angel (I don’t want them to breed) and get tank mates of a different species ?
I just setup my 55gal angel tank. It's all theirs to share with the pepper Cory's. I bought 8. I was told the max for a 55 was 6 but I have other tanks if it ends up being too many. I don't want babies. I'm hoping they don't procreate. 🤣🤣
Frozen brine they just ignored, fresh blackworms they ignored. I went and got Cichlid sinking pellets and they went bonkers. 🤦♀️ I'm hoping as they get used to being in the tank and with feeding time they get better with the brine and worms.
hi i have my first pair of angel fish i have them with mollys and mystrery snails and a betta and two corry cats and two pleco in 55 gallon
I am planing to get 3 angels for my 30gallon freshwater community aquarium what should I do if one of these angels decide to breed?
I have 3 adult angels in my 55G. Can I add smaller ones or they'll be killed?
If you have a group of more then one species of angel will they pair off inter species and if so, should this be avoided?
The black Angel at the 8:30 Mark looks like something is going on with the fins.
My angel has a similar thing happening... Ian trying to understand if that's rotting, or fin has been nipped?
Thanks
So say you have a pair of angels(not sure their genders), can you add more angels to the tank? Will the size difference cause problems?
Cool video!
I had to laugh because I'm cycling a 36g bowfront and my cousin just said I should put Oscar's in there because "they only get as big as the tank" 😒
As a beginner with a 55 gallon tank, how many angels would be an acceptable amount without overcrowding and leaving room for others like Corydoras and/plecos?
Great Video; however, I wish you had addressed how many to keep per tank volume. Also I keep hearing they are a sturdy hard fish, yet they always dye for me, I never had one last longer than 6 month. And I do maintain water changes on weekly bases, filters, all the basic things an advanced beginner would do. I also never have fish with them, that nips on fins.
