I have a cone and an upside down pot on opposite sides of the tank (a 50 gallon tall) but no they had to use this plant to spawn on.  Silly angels, I guess if they can take care of them all is good. |

Well, don't expect much the first few times around.... I haven't had any of my pairs spawn well the first couple of times. I don't pull the eggs though until after eachpair has successfully produced a good hatch rate of wigglers, then I start pulling them. Some of my pairs I don't pull at all and it's taken a dozen or so spawns for them to learn how to get to free swimming... except for my blue zebra/platinum pair (the plat I got from you) they did really well after only a couple tries, and produce well, all blue zebra or ghost babies. Not a high cull rate on their spawns either! Not like my pinoys - wow, talk about a bad pair! I need to get a few more so that I can repair them with unrelated partners.
Good job!!

Well as I expected they ate their eggs. I have bred and raised angels in the past so I expected that to happen. But I think I have an other 2 pairing up in the same tank. So I will have plenty of angels when they get it all figured out.  |

good luck, sounds like a lot of fun! I can't wait until i can get a big tank like this and breed beautiful fish like angels, I am thinking about doing what i can to get my dad a 29+ gallon tank cause he loves angelfish. I would take care of it for him no problem, either that or get "both" of us a saltwater tank cause he has always wanted a saltwater aquarium just never had the money. He loves clown fish, would be cool to have them and a live anemone for them to hide in  |

Well after they ate those eggs they spawned on the lift tube 2 weeks later. And of course ate those eggs. I think I have 4 males and one female, so in about 2 weeks I will take out three of the males and see what happens. Hopefully she will breed with the male I want her to mate with. She has stuck with the same male for both spawnings. Not the one I would have chosen for her. LOL... |

Angels are pretty easy to re-pair if you wait until the female is already conditioned. I've done it a few times now. If you'de like to trade one of your males for my pinoy female, we could make a trade. |
