CAn some one help me with this??/, this is the fourth time they laid eggs but they always get white ( I guess is fungus), but I tried to clip the leave and put it in a diff container with a lot of water movement, but nothing they always die and the parenets eat them.

CAn you guys give me some tips?????

thanks
 
I have always put something in where you can move the eggs. I move them to a container with a very gentle air flow. I think most important is that I spray fungus guard on the eggs when I move them. My son and I don't have angels any longer but had 600 babies off 2 pairs when we got out of it.. The gentle water flow from air rock and the addition of fungus guard make the difference.

Hope that is helpful..
 
You can either leave the eggs with the parents and see if they will raise them or you can pull the eggs and put them in a container with an airline and methane blue(spelling is off I think...) That will keep them from getting attacked by fungus. After they hatch, change the water to get the methane blue out. Make sure you have brine shrimp hatching as you will need to start feeding the fry as soon as they start swimming around, which should be around the 7th day. Right now I currently have 4 breeding pairs of silver angels. All pairs are 25% wild blood strain and will parent raise. I'm averaging a couple hundred babies a week and it takes a lot of time to take care of them all, but it is worth it! Pm me if you have any questions, I will try to answer them.
