    Your profile doesn't say where you are located.
    Have you checked your ph?
    What is your water hardness and is your ph perhaps fluctuating?

    Hmm, how big are the angels? Angels are cichlids and will eat or kill smaller fish. If the tank is cycled and all is good with the water then, the angels could be trying to have a midnight snack?

    Im from hennenman-welkom free state. Not sure about the hardness of the water but ph goes around 7.6-7.2. 1 angel are fully grown difficult to say exact size unless i try to post some pics of it next to the other fish. Can angels really be so eager to feed on live prey even if i give them chiclid pellets/flakes?
