i was sleeping round my g.f's house and as i lent over i noticed there was angel eggs on the filter and i thought nothing of it and this afternoon i noticed that there were fry on the bottom and the angels are protecting them any way there are also 2 mollies, x amount of neons, 1 three spotted gouramie, 3 rasporas, 2 frogs, 1 cory and 3 platies/swordtails. Should i take any of these fish out for a good percentage of them surviving be my g.f is over the moon about basby angels.

all replyies will be strongly appreciated. :)
 
Go to the cichlid section of the forum you will get more replys over there.
 
Angels that are raising fry may get spooked & eat the fry if you go disturbing their environment. For maximum survival it's best to remove the fry, and start a brine shrimp hatchery. Removing them will require another tank, heater, & filter. Building a brine shrimp hatchery is easier. Angel fry need baby brine shrimp the first couple of weeks at least.

If it doesn't work out, don't worry. Angels will spawn every 7 to 14 days. This will give you time to get the tank & other gear together. During this time you could remove the other fish, leaving the angels in the tank to raise the fry. The bbs hatchery is a must.
