Hiya, wonder if anyone has experience on this. Today I noticed angelfish tail has split
I’m worried is this a sign it’s getting poorly?

No, this is the only one. My Bolivian ram gives it an occasional chase but really rarely and hardly gets to to it. Never really seriousAndys temperate tank wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 19:40 pm Is there any other Angel's in there. Yours looks like one of my butt heads.

When I had 6 some of their tails were much worse than that from fighting. They healed in a couple of days once I seperated them.Redpanda wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 19:49 pmNo, this is the only one.

Oh that’s interesting thanks for sharing . I will keep an eye on him and the rest of the tank. He’s happy though and active and eating well. Water parameters also always have been good. Just worried he wasn’t getting ill

What are you feeding?
Also what are ALL your water parameters (inc. hardness and temp)?
(Good isn't enough )
Any sharp decor?

Hi Plankton
Sorry been vague
Ammonia, nitrites, nitrates - 0
pH- 6-7 as difficult to say colour with nt labs test.
KH- 1
GH- 4dH
Temp 26C
I have couple of sharper rocks, could be that he caught tail on there hope it’s just small damage and will heal in fee days as Andy said

Pristine water, drop of Melafix to help keep out secondary fungus and also help regrowth.
