alanmin4304 Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I assume you mean angels with two black genes. If you breed blackto black you will get some. They will be the weaker and slower growing ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpik Posted February 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I would like to find in New Zealand and buy AngelFish like these ones or similar: http://www.theangelfishsociety.org/phenotype_library_2007/Dark_Black.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thanks for the info. I know about angel genetics as I have bred thousands of them in a previous life. The reason you don't see many double blacks is that they are usually weaker and slower to develop so most people would breed them to something recessive like gold. As I said earlier, if you breed black to black you will get some. Throw in a long fin gene or two and you will have a spectacular fish. Best to breed then from the male. vpik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpik Posted February 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thank you for your information. One more question please ... if you have bred a lot of Angelfish in the past, you probably know more breeders in New Zealand than me. Do you know anybody who may have Black Angelfish for selling?

alanmin4304 Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 All you can do is keep an eye out on trademe and the sites selling fish and look for the best breeders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
