jjohnson3 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 I have a bicolor angelfish in my 38 gallon. It was eating some emerald entree but now wont eat that. I did some research online and I found out that they eat live sponges. Can I just buy a live sponge and just stick it in the tank as a primary food source for my angelfish? Will this affect nitrates, nitrites, ammonia, or other chemistry? Link to comment
Marteen Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Well you made a post yesterday saying he ate the emerald entree, maybe he's not hungry. If you did just introduce him to the tank it may take a couple days to acclimate to the tank. When he's really hungry in a few days he'll probably eat the entree again. Link to comment

I went upstairs and the Bicolor is just laying on the sandbed. I think this may be the start of her death. My LFS has no guarantee which makes it even worse. I put the fish in a 5 gallon bucket until I can pronounce it dead. I hope it comes back to but as of right now there is not much hope... Link to comment
