Ah cool fish porn, don't ya just love it. Angels are on my list of
fish to fool with once I can get sopme of my tanks rearanged. I have
basically an entire setup of tanks complete with
racks/lights/pumps/filters etcd, just as yu see installed at Deathco
stores (petco). I have both sides . Deathco here moved and I was told
my contractor they were goping top trash the entire setup of
tanks......it was well worth the time and effort to haul it
allhome.....
Anyway, is aged water a must? I managed to get a spawn from angels way
way back in the early 70's and the only thing that rings a bell was
aged water, heavily planted and light aeration...right water
parameters...ya got my interests peaked, now I have to start
researching them.
What is a recomended size tank to try and breed them in? 15? 20H? I
know the tanks from my deathco setup would not be suitable.

Hi Tristan.
Aged water....do you mean a fully cycled tank or old water that is in
need of a changing?
That term means different things to different hobbyists.
* Sometimes complete information isn't given by someone as you pointed out
to me more than a few times. *We need to make sure complete info is give at
all times.
Honestly, I don't know if they prefer it or not.
It would probably depend on the fish.
* Exactly. *There are variables as I point out constantly.
I prefer to use a cycled tank for them to spawn in (when setting up a
spawning tank for a pair).
That way they don't have to deal with cycling issues.
As for tank size....again, that's going to depend on the size of the
fish themselves.
* Right. *What works for one person may not for another.
Being that I have hard water and they do not grow to full size adult
Angelfish size (although it's not enough of a stunt in growth to
damage their internal organs and make them die a lot sooner than their
typical 8-10 yr life span).
* We have hard water here and they reach full size. Hardness (7.2 to 7.8) is
due to calcium so make sure you give a complete reply. *A complete reply
would mention that what happened to your angels may not happen to someone
else's angels.
