Question
You gave us some excellent advice on our tank and our sick angelfish.  We have put the angelfish in a hospital tank and started to try feeding it green peas.  My question is how long should we do that and  is there anything else we should do. The angelfish shows a little improvement, like the redness on it's back has lightened up and it swims a little from time to time when prodded a little bit.
Thank you for any advice you might have.

Hi Craig;

Great to hear from you again! I apologize for not getting to your question sooner. I have four children and three of them graduated this year. My twin girls from jr. high and my son from high school. So, I've been pretty busy!

That poor fish. You might try a treatment of an antibiotic called "Maracyn 2". It is available at local fish stores. He may have an internal infection and this one absorbs inside the body to treat ailments like that.

Let me know how it's going.....
