OH MY! The Angels are not!!!!

[sbb78247]

Love is in the air and apparently 2 of my angels decided to be little
devils. What to do, what to do.......

<mutters to himself - I thought I was going to get away with only one tank
this time. (looks for keys to the shed to start setting up another tank)>

You could ring the local marriage celebrant, or just let things take there
course,
Angels are funny bloody things, half the time the male has no idea what to
do,
or will bugger around, and end up eating the egg's while his girl friend
helps.
In the event that they do hatch, it might be an idea to obtain a small net
cage, that you can gather up the kids, and keep them in. In the same tank.
Then go down the garden shed, find the tank, and do a water change in the
main tank and use the water in the bare tank for the kids. In this way the
tank will not need to be cycled. But that could be weeks away, IF they Hatch
and IF any survive.

Good ideas, but in a way, I hope it does not come to this.

<starts muttering again - FMD! the old tank silicone is rotten and the stand
needs painting.>

Actually if it does come to this, the tank in the shed is larger so the
community will have a new home so the fry can be left alone.

How long does this take?

Ha, That could amount to the same thing, reminds me of one of my X's, on
2nd thoughts, I should have kept her in a tank, alone. with a large sponge
filter for company.

To set up a tank, gravel, filters, lights, stand etc or to have
free-swimming Angelfish fry ? ;~).

It depends on temperature. For cichlid eggs I count on 2-3 days to hatch
and 2-3 days to consume the yolk sacs and start free-swimming. For a
warm tank, you have about 4 days to have some BBS ready for them (or buy
frozen).
