    Hi guys, got my new fish today.

    Lovely angels that i bought from @howard

    Acclimatised them properly. And yes, not even an hour later, they started picking the bits of fish food on the bottom that i used to keep my tank cycled.

    They are also very responsive to humans, and not scitish at all.

    Im still busy working on theyre new tank, and cycling a new filter i bought today.

    The sponge filter im cycling for the new tank.

    Will give me 6 to 8 weeks to sort out the tank.

    Anyway, im very pleased sofar.
    And first time im keeping angels.

    @howard i normally wait a day or 2 before feeding, because normally my new fish dont always eat, but i fed them properly this morning and they ate well. Will do a 10 percent water change daily on theyre tank and give them a few small feedings daily.

    Want to try and get Midge to grow lol

    When theyre new tank is up i will be working out a program for them in advance, and get internal ph meters for tanks too.

    But looking at a few aspects, they might be more rewarding than my convicts in the long run.

    Told Ian that i might order one of those stands from him to have multiple tanks stacked.
