whenever they spawn, get the other pair out of the tank.
n do not disturb the spawning pair.
if they get scared or feel tension then they will eat all their eggs…

it only come out during the mating period.
it’s for laying eggs and release sperm

Male angel fish will fertilize the eggs by following close behind the female and touching all the eggs with his papilla.

I have a plecostamous that is about 12 inches and 4 angel fish that are 3 in not counting fins in a 55 gallon tank. 2 have paired off and often lay eggs. The eggs never hatch because the parents end up eating them before they get the chance. I’ve tried blocking off the parents and eggs with a screen but it ends up getting nocked off or down by the plecosamous. Is there a way to get the eggs to hatch and grow up?

My mother discovered the eggs in the corner of the tank one day and noticed a change of color in the eggs. What does it mean when the eggs are dark colored as opposed to white?

After another day or two noticed that one of the angelfish were eating the eggs. In panic, she has now separated the eggs from all the fish in the tank. Currently, the 2 angels are swimming 4 other fish (I don’t know what they’re called, they’re just golden yellow, but not goldfish).

By now, I’m sure my mom has pressed her face up against the tank numerous times out of curiosity, my father has added more water into the tank, my younger brother and sister probably has poked at glass a few times. Should we even bother with this batch of eggs? What will happen if we lift up the plastic divider?

Hi,
Ok so I am 12 (13 in 1 month) And I want to breed angelfish.
My dad did like 20 years ago and they never paired them off.
He gave me his old tank40 gallon and dosn’t think I can breed them but I will prouve I ca. But I have a few Questions.

1. Can I breed plecos and angelfish in the same tank?

2. Will stores buy baby angelfish and plecos?

3. How long until angelfish pair off?

4. I am going to buy 6 angelfish. Does it matter how big they are to breed?

5. Will plechos eat the eggs?

6. Anymore advice? I am so exited!!!!!!!!!!!

Thaks a lot!!!!

Please could you tell me how long the Angel fish eggs take to hatch. My son gave me his pair as the eggs they laid in his tank got eaten, that was a week ago and when I got hom from work today there are strings of eggs on the filter casing. Both parents seem very attentive.Thank you for these bloggs, I have learnt so much so far from reading them.

I just brought some angelfish . 2 are the size of quarters .. and two are the size of half dollars …. The older two have been in the tank for about 4 months … Is that ok and how many times do I feed them a day ?
