Is it normal for Angels to continue to eat their eggs? Its been five times and no luck. Every time, they lay these brown eggs and over the next day eat them all. Anyone have any tips? I dont mean like raise eggs seperate. I dont have the tanks to do that, but like changing feeding schedrule... something. Thanks
 
This is typical for domestically bred angels. All the parenting instincts have been bred out of them mainly due to the line breeding & inbreeding needed to obtain the different varieties.

Locate the tank in a quiet area, if possible only accessed for feeding & maintenance. Leave a dim light on near the tank at night, a lamp works well. Cover at least 3 sides with background, this will give them a feeling of security. You want nothing but the pair in the tank, no other fish.
