I would do small daily water changes for a few days to keep the water quality heading in the right direction.

Hi I think you need to keep the angel. you had to have assumed that he would occasionally nip.Cant you buy him sponges? I hope there is an alternative solution. I love my Sailfin.they are a great fish.

Hi No I would leave them in. Moving the rocks are a good idea. can you build the angel a rock refuge where it can defend itself? I did that when my powder was trying to kill a butterfly fish and it worked. i hope this helps.

Hello I think the idea is not that good. The clowns will calm down once they realize the angel is not a threat. I do not see the benefit of further stressing the clowns by keeping them in a critter keeper. the flame is qiute capable of protecting itself. Lights off yes. Critter keeper no. JMO

Beautiful fish! Good Job keeping it successfully.

Hello, after standing on my head, adjusting my contrast and squinting with crossed eyes, it is my determination that it looks like algae.
