Hello everyone
It turns out I've selected a male and female (again) from a group of 11 Angelfish (that I've raised myself a while ago). I know that "theoretically" it's impossible to tell males from females until they breed, but I have unmistakably selected a male and a female.
These are the characteristics by which I recognize males from females:
(1) Females have rounder bodies; males have their heads more "pointed" and may have a "bump" on their heads too (the "head" is technically called "crown")
(2) Males have longer ventral fins than females
(3) The top and bottom rays of the caudal fin are longer in males than in females
All of these characteristics are present in my 2 mated Angelfish pairs (one pair is in a 30 gallon tank, and another in a 75 gallon tank).
Anyway, the pair (which I have raised from babies, along with the other 9 babies now given away) has laid eggs yesterday evening on my filter tube. Seeing this, I quickly grabbed my camera and shot some pictures. So far, they haven't eaten the eggs and are constantly fanning them,
Though they may still eat them, so I am not getting my hopes high. Even if they didn't eat them, this is not a breeder tank and it has no sponge filter
OK ... so here are some pictures from the whole breeding business of yesterday evening, lol. You can also see their breeding tubes here.
