  • Dietary Needs: They are omnivores and thrive on a varied diet of high-quality flake food, pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods like brine shrimp or bloodworms.
  • Size and Lifespan: Adult Angelfish can grow up to 6 inches (15 cm) in height and length. With proper care, they can live for 10 to 12 years in a home aquarium.
