How do angelfish defend themselves?

Angelfish do not fight off an attacker. They either hide or flee or do both. Flee and hide. That is why they are so well camouflaged. They are flat and vertically striped so that they can blend in and disappear amongst the reeds and water plants.

Why the angelfish eggs turn white?

Eggs that were not successfully fertilized will turn white. The parents will usually eat them. If all the eggs are turning white it is possible that you have two females, one of which will mimick the behavior of a male but of course cannot fertilize the eggs. This happens sometimes. Also, be aware that it may appear that angelfish are eating the healthy (translucent or amber) fertilized eggs, if there are any. This is their "cleaning" motion...you will notice that the parents will get close to the eggs and use their small pectoral fins to fan them. They put their mouths close to the eggs too, my theory is that they have some type of sensory ability to tell if eggs are healthy/clean this way. The fin fanning prevents crud from settling on the eggs and ensures that they do not get fungal infections.

Angelfish eat the average fish food. If you have a fish store near you, go and ask a employee to direct you to the fish food section. And you will probably find a can of fish food with an Angelfish on it. Good luck!

Can an angelfish live in a tank with no bubbles?

Air bubbles do practically nothing to improve your water quality. The air pump should be attached to a filter to gain any real good from it. An angelfish needs a temperature of around 78F to 80F (It is a tropical fish). It also needs to be kept according to the basic rules of fish keeping and they are. :- 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. (1 angelfish needs at least 10 gallons). :- Every tank needs a fully cycled filter running permanently. :- Every tank needs to have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. If you keep to those rules your fish stand a cance of surviving. If you don't, I can guarantee that you will have constant problems with the health of your fish.
