So, last week-end I went to my favorite aquarium shop and they were having a sale on all of their fish. The fish were on sale for 50% off. Needless to say, I just had to pick up some fish for my tanks and one of my purchases was angels. I got four gorgeous angels for my 125 gallon planted tank. They are stunning! At least I think so. They have made a rather easy adjustment to their new home and have settled in quite nicely. One of them is a marbled angel(one of my favorites) and another one is I believe black veil tail angel. The other too are really beautiful too. They are living with a school of various rainbows and a few decent size school of tetras as well as some colorful platys. There is also a striped rapheal and a pleco in with them. All of them seem to be doing wonderful and my tank is once again alive with movement. I am so excited to have them since I have not had angels in any of my tanks for a while now.

I plan to post some pics later like this afternoon when the lights flip on in my tank and everyone is active.

Just had to share my excitement over my newest babies.

I will for sure get some pictures up of these beauties. The thing is they are all over the tank and it can be a bit difficult to get a decent pic but I am sure they will co-operate eventually. This afternoon the lights will go on and hopefully I can get them all together in one pic and then some single pictures. They are truly sweet and beautiful the way they just glide through the water.

Here are some pics of my newest babies. If the pic is too big I do apologize. I do not know how to make them smaller.

Ok this is a screw up. I cannot seem to post the right pictures and these are too big. I have some of the angels in my other thread in General Freshwater with the title My newest fish. Sorry for the inconvience.

I absolutely love marble angels. They're absolutely gorgeous fish. I tend to have the worst luck with them though. They either live about 6 mos and then die or something terrible happens to them. The last ones I tried to keep were victims of a tank crash immediately after I moved about 2 years ago.

The marbled angel is my favorite out of all of them but the black one is a close rival. I think I messed up and did not post a picture of the black one in this thread.They are all doing well and seem to get along together. Sometimes when I have had angels in the past i would end up with a bully among them and then fighting would ensue I hope that doe not happen this time.They are in a 125 gallon planted tank and appear to be happy so I am keeping my fingers crossed that they have enough room for each one of them to sort out any aggression problems.
