Angelfish

[Covert]

What water conditions are acceptable for angelfish (tank bred)?

My tank water is usually pH 7.5-7.7 with bogwood and GH of 15-16 (300ppm), is this too hard and alkaline?

Although tank bred Angelfish prefer a softer, more acidic water, they can handle just about anything thrown at them.

Especially if they were bred in harder water. Generally, keeping a fish in whatever water it's been accustomed to is a safe way to go.

Sounds almost identical to my tap water, and I breed angels by the hundreds in it. All I add is Prime.
