I bought a freshwater tropical tank in the middle/end of November. It had already been set up and the guy had an angelfish in it, among other fish including an aggressive, dominant rainbow shark (who has a new home now). My angelfish was rather skittish when I got it, but is now completely healthy, eats fine, weight is fine and is very friendly, especially to people who come and watch it The only things is, it's tiny - only about quarter size; it was that size when I got it over two months ago and hasn't grown at all. Is it possible to stunt angelfish growth, or is there something I'm over looking. My water is a little alk for it (about 7.5, we're on well water, which is nice as there is no chlorine), but my nitrite and nitrate levels are 0, so the water quality isn't an issue - the Angelfish just isn't growing. Any thoughts?
