i finally bought a 29gallon tank and its been running for two weeks.I haven't added any live plants yet cos i cudn get 'em anywhere 'round here for past 2 weeks. so after adding a fake plant and few cabomba plant (which i had in my other tank), i added my 2 angels and 3 mollie babies yesterday.Today my mum(who doesn know 'bout stocking) got 2 more angels as a gift wen i came back from college. I had no idea she was goin to buy them. Is it overstocked ? they are very beautiful though.! i don want to give away any of those.

am trying to update pics from a very long time

cant wait for pics!!!!! hint hint..but yes 4 angels in a 29 gal could be a war zone if you get them paired up at all if they are all juvies, you will have some time....

jana

there is some problem with downloading the photos
and right now they are around 6-7 months old.

Shawnie

you have to resize your photos on your own now..the new host site doenst resize for you

you will be having issues pretty soon as they are mature enough to know who is boss and who isnt now

jana

here's some of the pics.!
the third pic shows those who moved in today..!

what shall i do then? i can't afford to get another tank now as i spent most of my savings.!

wow nice babies!!!! love the koi's

I would return 2 to the fish store as they are big enough to cause issues
I can say from pic #2 top right, you have 2 girls and a boy in that one ..the girls are the one on the left and in the front and the boy is in the back..cant tell the one on the right of that pic...and on the last pic bottom, it looks to be a girl on the left and a boy on the right ..they have more growing to do for sure but thats my opinion right now

jana

thanks. till now there's been no fights bw them. if there is any, then i'll either get a spare tank else i'll return two of them.

Wow! Pretty Angels! They're all nice but honestly my favorite is the white one Sorry to hear you might have to return two Hope you'll be able to get another tank in time to keep them in there.

Best of luck!

hi all! i decided to return my white angel . iam keeping the other black one alone in a 10G which i had previously. iam keeping the pair in the 29G along wit 3 5-month old mollies. Is it ok? and i don think they have spawned yet as i have never seen them at it. Is slate necessary? i have 2 ornaments a brigde that has a bit of flat surface and a conical cup kinda thing and lots of plants.I saw them cleaning the side of tank once then they started picking the leaves off a plant with wide stem but still no sight of eggs but they are doin very well together i saw their mating dance few times though .!!! it was kewl!! anything else to be done to help them mate?? waitin eagerly for ya replies.!

Forgot to mention. Pair turned out to be those ma mum got for me. Ones in the third pic.
have a great day

Aw... You returned yours and my favorite white Angel? haha Cool you got your 10g to put one Angel in. Be careful of the pair though, when they start their mating process, territory will become important for them and any fish that gets in their way are in harm. So keep an eye on that situation soon to might come.

jana

yeah i had to and yeah 'll be careful. just to make sure, the male angel is always chasing the female but not harming her in any way. is it normal?

peacemaker92

It could be the mating process. Not so sure, never kept mating pairs before. haha

jana

hope they lay eggs and i get to raise their babies.
