Angelfish Update

Posted by Sarah on January 11, 2008

We noticed that the majority of the angelfish eggs were fungusing on the 9th, and that a cloud of fungus was covering the good eggs, so we removed them all.

Maybe next time.

Angelfish Eggs fungusing

About half of our angelfish eggs have fungused.

There are still some that look good, but I’m not sure what will happen with the ones that look good, since so many are fungusing.

Angelfish Eggs

Posted by Sarah on January 8, 2008

Our angelfish laid eggs last night.

This was the second time they’ve laid eggs, but so far we haven’t had any hatch.  I’ve heard that’s normal though, and that sometimes it can take ten times before fry hatch from eggs.

I’ve also heard that sometimes two females can lay eggs together, although last time we only noticed one fish actually laying eggs, the other fish was kind of following behind the first fish.

So far about 17 of the eggs are white this morning, which means there infertile, but we’ll see how they do.

Last time we had angelfish eggs the eggs lasted two or three days, then they were gone.

Of course the last time the angelfish were in a community tank, and this time they are alone.
