Title: Is this normal?
Post by: LizStreithorst on October 31, 2012, 04:47:10 PM

I have 4 Angels making runs up the cone. One is a female and the 3 others are males. I've never seen Discus do it this way. I've seen 2 females laying by themselves. I've seen 2 females and a male making goo goo eyes at the cone and doing all the other fishy foreplay, but once they get down to it it is always one male and one female making runs. Is what I'm seeing normal for Angels?

Well, ain't that something. I've never see such. All 4 are adults. 2 have been parents before, 2 have not. She is still making runs. The three males are driving everyone else off. This is in a community tank of Angels and Discus. My kH is too high for the eggs to hatch. That is a good thing. I really don't want to breed Angels. I don't have the passion for them. I'll hang on and wait for my recalcitrant Discus.
