OMGGG ITS BEEN LIKE THE FREGGIN DISCOVERY CHANNEL IN MY ROOM TODAY!!!!!

my pleco has wim bladder, and had his stomach popped this morning...my friend tanks leaked so he had to bring his fish over to my house....and now my angels are laying eggs!!!!!

they picked the STUPIDEST spot EVERRRR they picked the most vertical leaf in the tank....and its plastic.....she tries to lay them and they all fall off, they both scramble to pick them up and try to put them back on the leaf >.<

Theres no other fish in teh tank. Ive heard of getting some kind of fish when they have eggs, and it makes them like better parents, cuz they feel like they have to protect them or something?? what kind of fish is that?

i dont know the fishes name but jus dont worry about it until they hatch then put them in a breeding net or sumthing

Good luck!!!!

I have never had any success when my Angelfish have laid eggs. They have laid a batch off eggs about a dozen times so far. They always guard them like crazy for 24 hours and then proceed to eat them all...

lol yea im trying to keep them well fed so that dosnt happen. But since they chose to put them on a vertical plastic leafe alot o them have fallen off, so they're safe in the gravel. Its a tight spot the parents wont be able to get down there and eat them. So i'm sure some will hatch. I've never had egglayers before. When they hatch should I put them in a different tank? tehe im so excited. About how long is the process going to take? like how long until they hatch?
