| Well I picked up a pair of breeding Angels. The owner bought some angels and these two paired off and then went on to kill all the other fish in the tank once they laid eggs. Since they did not want to have to get more tanks and since the fish where spawning so rapidly they needed a place to go. SO they found their way to one of my 55's Here are some pictures of the beautiful fish. Not the same color and have no idea what their fry will turn out like but as of right now the female is holding what looks to be a ton of eggs. It would be amazing if it was a black and yellow mix or even a silver and black mix! SO I will be expecting some fry in the up and coming weeks here I hope!

| No idea what they are doing with them. He had them in a little grow out in the tank I guess the parents ate a few of them but didn't say what he was going to do. My guess is raise/sell them but who knows...
As soon I know the fry are going to be healthy I will most likely start looking for some new homes for them hehe

| It's eggs her tube is down, they can lay eggs every 8 to 15 days. up to 500 at a time (300to 400 is the norm for most pairs). Once they lay the eggs do not turn off the light as they will get skittish and eat the eggs. (hard for them to see predators in the dark) Put methylene blue in the tank as soon as they are finished laying the eggs. |

| depends on the size of his grow out tank? He can donate pre-dime size if he wants. But the person will need to know how to take care of them. BTW you can get the marble anytime. |
