Anyone knows how long angel fry take to get to free swimming stage, if they don't become a snack for others angels?
this is my first time keeping angels and i know almost nothing about breeding and raising fry, didn't think they would pair up and breed so quickly, thought i had a couple of more months left, since they are about 6 months of age only.

on average 7 days to become freeswimming- some strains may take a day longer to go free swimming but most often it is 7days if the water temp is between 79-83 degrees if below or above the temp it could be faster or slower depending

And don't worry if they don't get it right this time...Angels are about like guppies...they never stop spawning. They will probably lay eggs every 7 to 10 days until you get so freaking tired of baby angels that you pull your hair out....

Funny, some of the people we find to be genuine and and have immense integrity, we've never met in person but instead, in cyberspace. I only wish I was surrounded by that in my daily life offline.
