Breeding Angels

[scubagalhottie]

Was wondering how long til my angel eggs hatch?? Was successful once before by accident, Moved a pair from a 75 gal to a 20H gal and was surprised to find fry one day. This pair is in a community tank (75 gal.) and laid their eggs on my intake for my filter. What to do? Will the fry be ok or should I try to move eggs and parents??

2-3 days for them to hatch. If you have a spare tank maybe move the fry (when they've hatched) and parents into the spare tank. Otherwise you might want to cover over your filter intake with a sponge to prevent the fry being sucked in. Depending on the tankmates, the angelfish might devour the eggs anyway.
