Angel Fish Keep Dying

[swanseastilo]

Ok im confused as to why my angel fish keep dying im not able to keep one longer than 2 weeks.


My water
ph is 6.8
Ammonia 0.25 cant get it down no matter how many water changes
nitrate 0
nitrite 0

Water temp is 80

I have a new 160 L tank wtih 6 GUPPIES 6 tETRAS AND 2 CHERRY SHRIMP WITH 2 SMALL LOACHES.

The fish are usually active taken food from my fingers and then i notice them hiding constantly then i know somethings up.

Any ideas.

Firstly, continue with the water changes to reduce the ammonia levels. What percentage do you currently change and how often?

Do the fish show any visible symptoms other than hiding before you have found them dead?

Angelfish in my experience are very sensitive to ammonia.
Is your tank cycled?
If so, whats the ammonia readings on your tap water?

I also found angels to be ridiculously sensitive, try to reduce any stress to them (ie. When cleaning or doing water changes, aggressive tank mates?, redecorating). At the moment I am having trouble with tank mates - just can't seem to find the little eat who is chewing his tail
