OK so u have an angel fish in my 30 gallon planted tank along with about 9 other fish. Whenever I feed them live food (bloodworms, brine shrimp) my angel fish is the first over to the syringe to get the food. I try to drop the food at different places in the tank but it rushes all over to get it, and the fish at the bottom hardly ever get any of it.

Also if I use a pipette to put the food in, my angel fish will come over and actually suck the food out of it.
 
Yeah my angels do that too. What other fish do you have? do they recognize you when you approach the tank? Most of my guys (angels, gourami, Bolivian ram) are pretty aware it's feeding time when I get close to the tank and go to the same spot every time.

I have some kuhli loaches, 2 bristlenose plecos, a krib, I did have 2 rams but I think one may have died and has been eaten because I can't find its body anywhere, and some black neon tetras.
