Description: These beautiful and healthy Angelfish babies are from a new pairing of a Blue Platinum Pearl Scale male and a Blue Smokey Standard female and they are very hardy parents. Pictures of both parents are included. All babies are Smokey Blue Philippines and some will turn out to be Pearl Scale when they reach a size larger than a Quarter. You will be shipped a mix of Veil Tail and Standard Tail babies. Specifications:Care Level: EasyTemperament: Semi-aggressiveMinimum Tank Size: 20/30 gallons but bigger is betterWater Conditions: 75-82° F, KH 1-5, pH 5.8-8.0Diet: OmnivoreMax. Size: 6-7 inches Angelfish prefer a well planted aquarium with rocks and driftwood. They need plenty of room to swim so they should be housed in a 29/30 gallon aquarium or larger. The water in the aquarium should be slightly acidic. Angelfish can live up to 10 years in captivity if they are provided with proper aquarium conditions. Because of their shape, this species does much better in tall aquariums with a capacity of at least 29 gallons but larger tanks are much better for them. As they reach sexual maturity you may have some pair off and begin breeding. During this time they can be aggressive to other fish as they are protecting their chosen territory to begin laying eggs. At this time you can either give pairs their own tank or separate them into different tanks by gender if you prefer a more peaceful tank of Angelfish. Angelfish are able to recognize their owners and react excitedly when they see their favorite people come into the room. They look forward to every feeding and are always ready to eat. They love flake foods best but will eat sinking foods as well. Provide a variety in their diet for optimal health. Our babies are bred by us at Purple Aquatics and are raised on live brine shrimp, Fry Starter Krill, crushed flakes, decapsulated brine shrimp eggs, plus more variants of fish food to make them more adaptable to new diets in their new homes. Shipping: We ship on Mondays/Tuesdays, and sometimes on Saturdays and Wednesdays. We add multiple Hot Packs or Ice Packs as needed. Box will include Styrofoam insulation, plus additional insulation materials and we insert oxygen into the fish bag (we use double or triple bagging). Angels are shipped in our larger boxes and bags. If you wish to purchase other fish from us we do combined shipping at a discounted rate for the additional fishes you wish to purchase. The largest risk in shipment is the fish being left in a mailbox upon delivery. You can sign up for notifications about your delivery via USPS.com or for FedEx at https://www.fedex.com/en-us/delivery-manager.html DOA Policy: I guarantee live arrival. I have included additional babies in case of DOA's. Contact me via E-Bay communications with pictures of the DOA fish still in the bag WITHIN 2 hours of the delivery time noted in your tracking number. Make sure you are home or someone is to take them inside ASAP and begin acclimating them to their new home. Acclimating your new fish: Do not drip acclimate these fish. Its best to float the bag 20-30 minutes to adjust them to the temperature of their new home and then remove them from the bag and release them into the tank with plenty of aeration running in the tank.
