Are angelfish herbivores carnivores or omnivores?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They are omnivores. I have seen them eat live brine shrimp and herbivore flake food.

There are 86 different species of Marine Angelfish and 3 species of Freshwater Angelfish.

While most Angelfish species are omnivorous; some Angelfish species are completely herbivorous (algae eaters), and some are completely carnivorous (zooplankton eaters).

Most angelfish are omnivores.

Marine angelfish are perciform fish of the family Pomacanthidae. They are found on shallow reefs in the tropical Atlantic, Indian, and mostly western Pacific oceans.

Why do angelfish have scales?

Scales act as a kind of armor, helping protect the skin of fish. Scales also help water move more smoothly over a fish as it swims. Even so, some fish, such as catfish and lampreys, have no scales.

How many bones does an angelfish have?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most "regular" fish, such as the angelfish, have a skeleton made of bone (class osteichthyes, I think). Fish such as sharks, skates, and rays have a skeleton made of cartilage (class chondrichthyes). Even bony fish, though, such as your angelfish, have some cartilage for flexibility. I believe that the baby bony fish, like a human fetus, has pure cartilage until the bone forms. DL
