I did a routine water change yesterday, and came home to find two of my big angels (the ones I had suspected were pairing off) had laid eggs on a plant leaf!

Guess I need to get moving on setting up another tank for this pair. So far they have eaten most of this batch of eggs - I suspect they were not fertilized as the male did not seem to have a clue about his job - but they are diligently guarding the remaining eggs this morning and everyone else in the tank is staying away. No violence, so far.

Looking at a 65 gallon tank set up tonight. I like the 25" height these are large angels.

Sorry the pictures are so poor - cheap cell phone and inept operator and too much light reflecting off the glass. But look how Big they are, and how Beautiful. My silvers are actually very colorful, golish silvery green, with freckles and orangy/red shoulders, the largest is over 7" tall from top to bottom of his long fins. And I love the marble. I watch for hours.
