Default baby anglefish ocala florida

I have a community tank where my 8 month old pair of angels are the proud
parents of 100+ fry. I don't know if they'll make it, but the parental
units are doing a great job, and I've removed the other residents of the
tank. They hatched last Thursday and are now swimming (or I should say

are
being herded) around the tank in a school. This has never happened to me
before so I don't know what will happen next, but if any survive, is there
anyone in the Ocala area that would be interested in having some of them?

I
don't want to get involved with mailing fish around, this would be on a

pick
up or drop off basis. Mom is a gold veil and dad is gold marble, so the
babies will probably have lots of orange on them. I got these two at a
local fish store, so don't know their actual genetics.


In reality without the proper space, feeding, and segregating needed,
you'll be lucky to get a handful to reach a decent size. They will start
culling themselves everyday they aren't well fed and sized. Still lots of
fun watching them.
