Well although I am not an expert because I have lost a queen angel. I believe this was just a bad fish I received. Anyhow, the queens are supposed to be pretty hardy fish and will live quite a while. In the ocean they mostly eat sponge, but if you get them as juvi's you will probably be able to feed them some frozen or flake foods. Just like any fish they need a varied diet. Most will eat greens (caulerpa) along with other types of food. I mostly fed mine some green food from a local LFS that they make and feed all of their fish. I also kept caulerpa in the tank, mostly racemosa. They are very nice and hardy fish though and some even say they can be a good starter fish, some say even to cycle a tank. I would not however put a $30-$100 fish in the tank and have it cycle. They become quite beautiful. Here is the picture of my adult that died :(

Wow..that is fantastic.. :)
sorry to hear that you lost Queen Angel..
You have very beautiful tank..wow.(i went to your website..)..
I have him in my 55 gallon fish only tank with Purple Tang, Flame Angel, Cardinal, Orange tail Fijii Damsel. two clowns.
I got juv queen angel for $34...
i was about to get Hippo for the same price.but since hippo is prone to lots of trouble..i choose to take him(never had him before).
one concern(lots of people will tell me to change the tank to larger..i know. ) is the tank size..
now it's about 2.5 inch long and i know it will grow up to 18 inch or more..
Just hoping that i can change my tank as my live stocks growing..
thank you for your kind response.
