My freshwater angel fish won’t eat. ?

I have a 20 gallon freshwater tank. PH is about 6.8, Phosphate is zero and nitrates/ammonia is zero.
I have one angel fish (for about a year) along with a neon High Fin Platy & Dwarf Gourami. All were perfect and ate my tetra flake food. About one month ago, my niece got to the tank and poured the entire bottle of flake food in the tank. I scooped as much as I could out. I called the fish store and followed their advice. Did about a 40% water change vacuuming the bottom to get as much food out as possible… Then 25% water change each of the next two weeks. I’ve tested the tank and levels are perfect and water is clear. Problem is Angel fish will no longer eat flake food. He will only eat live brine shrimp and I know he needs more healthy food. He just stares at the flake or if he rarely takes a bite spits it right out. Fish store people told me not to feed him brine shrimp and he’ll eat when he gets hungry. Well it’s been five days and he still won’t eat the flake food. Help! He also spits out frozen blood worms and dried brine shrimp. Will only eat live shrimp. Does any fish experts have a suggestion. I don’t know what else to do and don’t want him to die. Any good suggestions would be appreciated.

I want to add an anemone to my salt water tank… Can you help?

My setup is a 55-gallon saltwater tank, set to about 78-degrees. Current residents include a percula, a cinnamon clown, a few damsels, a coral beauty angel, and a snail and a shrimp. I have a standard hood and would prefer not to add metal halide or other specialized lights, if possible. Can anyone suggest any species of anemone that would work well (colorful would be nice, but not a dealbreaker)? Anything special I should know in terms of care and feeding? Any particular dangers to my current tank setup?

I have a question about fish Please Help?

I really don’t like fresh water plants because they leave a big mess on my fish tank and my parents don’t want me to buy plants for my fish tank. So I went to a store and bought bamboo plants because they don’t make a mess but I was still wondering if it was good to put them in my fish tank. I currently have gouramis,plecos,tetras,danios,1 catfish. Please help. Also if I buy a fresh water shrimp angel fish or frog will it get eaten by one of my fish?

I need help finding a fish!?

Ok So I’ve got a 29 gallon aquarium with 2x 30 gallon filters, an airstone, and I do regular water changes. I plan on having by the end of my stocking I plan on having: 3 boseman rainbows, an african dwarf frog, a platy, a dwarf gourami, a cherry shrimp or two, and an angelfish (yes it may eat my shrimp). Soooo my problem is that I have room for one more fish. But I can’t find one that I want. This fish should be 1-3 inches big. I want a really interesting fish that you wouldn’t consider your typical petco’s beginner fish. Something REALLY cool. Something that will actually bond with me (like the angel will) not a ditzy fish that only eats (i.e. a platy) Any suggestions? cuz id love an idea! (no invertebrates please. unless there’s a freshwater starfish lol)
