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.
