Re: [GSAS-Member] Is anybody have adult male Angelfish?



  Hi Paul,

  I'm sure your male would not mind another affair since she is full and ready 
to go I'm sure.  I'm sure he must be big since he is 3 years old.  
  Yes, I heard about the 2 females lay eggs but she is by herself now.  And it 
seems she become more frustrated lately that she can't find the suitable 
husband and heavy stomach.  
  So do you want him back or want me to keep him.  Hopefully they get along and 
I can keep them together but you never know about the C*chlid.  But if not, I 
don't think I can keep them both.  Since I already have 2 x dollar size Albino 
I am hoping to pair up and I am suppose to get several small ones in the mail 
soon when I made the Corydoras trade.  

  I just want you to know that I would like to try to borrow or get your male 
for my big Gold female but I may have to let him go if things does not work 
out.  If you can take him back great if not I may have to find him good home 
for him.  
  But I would love to give him the chance to meet her.  

  Anyway, I'll talk to you later.

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.
