I've seen many posts with angelfish eating their eggs.

Since it's necessary to keep the eggs moving, can RCS be used for this?

To clarify, can you move the slate with the fertilized eggs on it into an RCS tank and let the RCS hatch them out?

I've heard of this done with cory eggs.

What does it mean " RCS "? thank you :confused:
 
Keep them with Shrimp to hatch them?? When i have hatched Eggs I put them in a small container with a bubbles and changed the water in the container every day. This worked great for me only lose 3 eggs.

Getting the eggs to hatch is never a problem for me its keeping the free swimming fry alive thats when it gets hard.

Yes, for the angel parents who like to eat their eggs.

A friend of mine used the same technique as you regarding the small container and bubbles for cory eggs and then switched to the RCS method.

That's what made me think it might work for angels.
 
interesting and sounds like it very well could work.
