Angelfish Eating Fry

[shortymet55]

Will Angelfish start eating fry as soon as they fit in their mouths? I have small angelfish and a pregnant sowrdtail. Fine Dining for the Angels or just to big to eat? Their about 1 inch diameter.

Tasty treat for the angels, I have angels that size that have no problem eating frozen bloodworms & live blackworms. Some dense floating plants will help keep some of the fry from being eaten.

The Angelfish and the Swordtails will for sure eat the fry. The best thing to do is either take out the pregnant female to have her fry in another tank. Also you could put some floating plants in the tank so the fry could have a place to hide.
