I couldn't resist

Hello everyone,
I was just looking around a pet store I usually don't go to, and I possibly made the best reflex buy I ever have. I got a nice 2" long 3" high breeding pair of angel fish, that had eggs in the tank... FOR 2 US DOLLARS!!!!!! That was amazing because a pretty bad 1" angelfish is $12 here...

So anyway, Because they are a pair, and so small, could I breed them in a bare bottom 12 gallon tank with a sponge filter and a daily 10% water change?
I have a 2 37 gallon tanks where I could grow out some of the babies.

Thanks for the help!

how the hell did you get two breeding angelfish for 2 bucks???

It's ridiculous I know. The petstore wanted them gone I'm guessing because they told me they were getting a HUGE shipment tomorrow and no one there noticed they were a pair I guess. I just kept my mouth shut other than saying "I'll take those two"

Do you keep reef tanks and freshwater?

In my experience with Angels I would say use your tallest tank for the pair. I have kept angels in a 20L and it wasn't tall enough for them.
