Re: [GSAS-Member] Is anybody have adult male Angelfish?
Hiro:
The male is ~ 3 years old. He spawned a number of times with the female with
fry surviving out to a month on at least 2 occasions. I kept the first
surviving fish (Jr.). As the male was becoming more aggressive with time I
removed him. I traded the female and Jr to the neighbors some time ago. I can
try to find a picture to indicate size.
In tanks without a male pairs of females will lay and tend to eggs.
