candy Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 to make my mum happy about my big bad fish i bought her 4 little marbled angles... just noticed that i now have eggs and a proud mum but a rather angry daddy fish whos pretty much shreded the other angle fishes tail . poor thing. so ummm what should i do? should i keep the pair and pass on the other two or keep the other two and pass on mum and dad? keep in mind i like oddballs and i dont have time money or space to bring up bubbas...... :roll: help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpidersWeb Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Best bet is to pass on one or both of the parents. If kept together they will continue to breed. I'd recommend selling both as you tend to get more money for a breeding pair. Dad is just protecting his babies. You can keep the breeding pair, but without the other angels (essentially target fish) the male may start going for other tank mates. Generally breeding cichlids should really have their own tank. Raising baby fish is fun, but it its not ya thing, then I'd sell the pair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candy Posted July 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 i know that if i had anything breeding i would spend more time playing with the fish then doing my uni stuf plus there is not a meturnal bone in my body ... im one of the few women who dont go gaga over babies... i think i wil see what myother half think about it all. i would hate for the male to start being horrid to my butterfly fish or knife fish or bishers ect..as they are my pride and joy. i knew the angel fish plan was going to back fire on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
