Food and feeding

Angel squeaker is definitely not a fussy eater; it will do well on quality flakes or pellets, spirulina discs and algae wafers. Brine shrimp and blood worms should also encourage good growth.

Origin

Africa; Angel squeakers are to be found in the Congo River system.

Sexing

Angel squeakers can be difficult to sex; the only way is to check the genital papilla of the fish. In the males, the papilla will be ridged and extended; the females will have two smaller pores, the oviduct and the anus.

Breeding

As of yet, there are no reported cases of this fish breeding in the aquarium, but it is thought to be an egg scatterer.

Lifespan

The expected life span for Synodontis angelicus is 5-8 years.

Short description

Synodontis angelicus will adapt to different water conditions; It will require hiding places or caves in the tank. Rocks should be used rather than bogwood, the addition of broad leaved plants will also be beneficial.
