Best Answer

Angel fish are bony fish. Angel fish originate in the Amazon region of South America. They grow up to six-inches in length. Angel fish in home aquariums can live on flake food alone, but they love adult brine shrimp, black worms, mosquito larvae, and finely chopped earthworms.

How many bones does an angelfish have?

Most "regular" fish, such as the angelfish, have a skeleton made of bone (class osteichthyes, I think). Fish such as sharks, skates, and rays have a skeleton made of cartilage (class chondrichthyes). Even bony fish, though, such as your angelfish, have some cartilage for flexibility. I believe that the baby bony fish, like a human fetus, has pure cartilage until the bone forms. DL
