brad3d Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 righty oh just purchased a few angles could or could not be breeding pair (one was fat) i put them in the tank with a few kribensis and male and female brislenose any way one of the angles disapeared and i heard it going to town behind a rock thinking it was stuck i lifted the rock to see a tone of eggs. so ive googled it but they all tend to look the same... :cofn: im thinking they are not the kribs as they looked to big for a little fish didnt think it would be the bristle nose been on a smooth rock or could the angle have droped them ? the eggs were bright orange and each egg is about 2mm and about 50-80 eggs help any body? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfishybuisness Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 They are bristlenose if they are orange, are they in clumps ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Kribs eggs are orange too and surprisingly big for such a small fish.. Kribs could have laid them between some rocks and by the way you are describing it sounds like the angel found someone else eggs and had itself a nice feast! It was the butler who did it!! no wait I mean the kribs :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshlikesfish Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 They are bristlenose if they are orange, are they in clumps ? I always thought they laid eggs bigger than 2mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myfishybuisness Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Yeah sorry Josh is right they are bigger than 2mm so that means that they would be kribs, and I would have tho kribs would protect there eggs VERY well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably bristlenose then. Makes sense if they were under something too. Usually the male will find a cave of some sort(its not uncommon for them to bury under things if the substrate is right) and spawn with the female. He then protects the eggs. Are you wanting to hatch them? Put them in a net breeder/guppy trap sort of this with a gentle airstone, or another tank with no fish if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
