Has anyone here successfully bred angelfish?
right now this is the 4th time my angelfish have layed their eggs and I wanna get it right.
The first time they layed their eggs on my amazon sword plant so I cut the leaf off and put it into my 10 gallon tank. I put an airstone right under the leaf and I added Maroxy. 2 days later all the eggs are white.
The second time I decided I'll let the angelfish take care of them in the community tank(the eggs were on the glass) but 2 days later they disappeared. Guessing they were eaten by somefish?
The third time I decided to get a tank divider and seperate the angelfish and their eggs, but once again I was foiled and the eggs turned white.
This morning I watched my Female angel lay her eggs and saw the male pass over them so once again I divided the tank. The eggs are once again on my amazon sword plant so they can be removed. What I'm asking here is what would you, the experienced breeder, do? Should I sit tight, should I remove them now, should I remove them in a couple of days?
Thanx ppl. I and the Angels really would appreciate it. So far they've looked like good parents so I'd like to give them their best chance!
