krantan1 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Came home today to find that my angels have layed more eggs!!!!! These are on the filter (again!) so will have to leave there for now. Might leave them in with the parents when they are hatched too and see what happens untill I have another fry tank setup. Thats all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krantan1 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 The male looks golden but they both have black stripes which dissapear when they come out into full light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smidey Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 when i had angels they constantly layed there. if you want them to lay elsewhere put mesh or netting around the filter, i used rubber bands to hold it there & hang something smooth & solid for them to lay on so you can remove it.

Caper Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Congrats So from the comments I take it they won't survive being that close to the filter :oops: :-? ? Caper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpidersWeb Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 So from the comments I take it they won't survive being that close to the filter :oops: :-? ? They might, quite a few would end up inside the filter though being that close to the inlet. Not too bad as they laid on the side. You'll find they love green things. In the wild I beleive they lay on large leaves? Usually in my tanks the most stable smooth surface is the filter intakes. So what I do now is use suction cups to attach unused plastic pipe to the sides of the tank. Without fail they lay on these now (so far 4 of my 5 breeding pairs, and the 5th is cleaning one now). They're easily removable, and you can place them where it's safe for eggs to be if you want the parents to raise them. I got tired of having to swap my intake tube once a week. (Angels can breed within about 10 days of the last eggs being laid, and when you have 4 pairs in a tank :roll: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
