    Got these angels from a breeder on another forum, they are one of the most unique coloration I have seen.

    Nice blushers, I got ya beat though, I got one female named bessie, cause she looks like a dairy cow. Ive never had luck with blushers, im not sure if its something genetically but they dont last long at all. Ive lost every blusher ive had, while the other ones are thriving.

    I got a dozen angels now, each one is individually unique and purty, especially my platinum blues w/ bars.

    yeah me too, I started with two unproven petsmart juves who dun went off and paired up, stupid parents but great surrogates.

    Angels are great fish.

    I've got 13 angels at the moment. Trying to get rid of 6 of them they are growing up too quick. 4 DD reg fin and 2 marble reg fin about silver dollar size or maybe a tad larger. I have always loved angel fish for the past 50 years. LOL My Uncle had a silver angel when I was 2 and still remember that fish.

    yes good luck, first time laying eggs? if so keep your chin up, they will either get it right the first time or the hundredth time.

    tis true, mine are better surrogates aka fosters then true parents, that and those damn neons and cardinals wont leave the eggs alone either, they realized to follow close behind and underneeth the male so he doesnt see them and they scarf the eggs.

    Good thing I am going to have a 45 tall tank just for raising eggs I think.
