Picking out an angel requires spunk, eating, good coloration, and an overall look of health.
This man nailed it with this post. When buy any kind of fish, look for the " alive" one, ask the LFS if you can see him eat. Some LFS will put some live brine shrimps or blood worms to show you if he has a good appetite. Sorry for your loss. Luna
