My new Koi angelfish!

[Disgirl]

Thought you might like to see my newest angelfish. I have kept angels for a long time but these are my first Koi angels. I realize they are a "manufactured" color of angel and not at all natural, but I just love the colors anyway. These are in QT until much larger and they can join the others in my 75 gal angel tank which is fully planted and scaped. They arrived in a styro box by UPS on a very hot day 2 weeks ago. Did not mind the very warm water a bit. I feed them the same high quality foods my discus get and they have grown a lot in just 2 weeks.

Nice Barb...how many Angels do you have in total? I've never been able to keep Angels, but do well with Discus...go figure Of course, I haven't tried since I was in my teens.

Hi David, I have a 75 gal tank (my former discus tank) that is fully planted, graveled, wooded and rocked , and there are 14 full or almost full grown angels in it. I will take a pic of it one of these days and add it to this thread. I feel sure that if you can do discus you can surely do angels .

[Disgirl]

They look great Sid! And talk about a large spawn, wow, that is a whole lot of fry to raise. That's a wonderful pic of all the young. You must sell them there in Scotland? By the way, we have always wanted to visit your country and hope to some day.
