Angelfish laying eggs

[Benthebassmaster]

My angelfish just layed eggs and the male angel is fertilizing the eggs. I don’t really know what to do. I did research about it a while ago. There is corydoras in the tank and the angels are being very aggressive towards the Cory’s. What should I do.

It’s a 55 gallon tank

Congrats on the spawn!!!

Are you worried about the eggs or the cories?
If the cories have a place to hide, then they’ll be ok in the 55.
Do you have any other fish in the tank? If not, then you could raise the fry with the parents. If this is the first spawn, don’t be surprised if the parents eat the eggs - they’ll spawn again.

Got a pic to share?

Let the parents protect the fry especially if you don't have any experience in raising the fry yourself. When the fry become freeswiming you will need to feed them by crushing pellet or flake or go to lfs and pickup Hikari First Bites.

Thanks. I woke up today not seeing any of the eggs so I thought either the corydoras ate them or the angelfish or they moved them to somewhere I don’t know.

All I have is 2 angels and 4 cories

That’s a pretty heavy realization.
