Wasnt sure where to put this post but since i had pictures i figured this location. If not, please relocate thread to appropriate forum.
Now my Mated Koi Angel Fish pair finally laid eggs May 22, 09 on a piece of slate that I placed in my lightly and i mean lightly planted tank. Both angels are prrox. 2.5 to 3" in size. Not that large. The parents laid the eggs on a slate. Relocated them to the songe of the filter intake, relocated them again to the slate, them placed the fry on the plant leaves. I went on You tube and Google to find out the process in raising angel fish fry and its typical for parents to move there fry around.
There has been a couple of links which say after the 5th - 7th day, the fry will be free swimming and on there own. Its already day 10 and they still wiggle around attached to the leaf that parents put them on. Just curious if people had issues raising angel fish fry and what there take is? I already have my 5.5g fry tank running so im just waiting for when its time to place them in the tank. Also got a 4 brine shrimp hatchery's ready once there able to eat.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
See pics below.
Not the best since its my camera phone.
First pic is eggs on slate
Second pic is parents and fry
Third pic is parents a fry.
There all over the place but only a few pics were clear and you can see the fry eyes.
