Hi I've posted before with wonderful responces about Angel fish. I have an ongoing argument with my son who has a tank of Angels and 25 healthy 3 month old baby Angel Fish. I have 5. I had trouble with my tank at first and lost about 3 on and off. He said my water temp at 78-80 was way too warm? His is 76 and his fish are fine and swimming all around. When mine is 76 they are all huddled around the heater. Anyone with Angel fish I would like to know what temp works best for you.
Thanks
Linda

mine were kept as low as 78 degrees and and high as 82..... it seemed the warmer the better for them.... I would say your idea is probably ok for them, though I would lean toward them being on the warmer end (80). The lower temp is ok, but the eggs would do much better at the higher end (IMO).....
