    Another great video Dave. Covers good points of aggression. Didn't know you could break up the aggression into 3 types
  • My pair recently laid some eggs and they disappeared overnight. When I noticed they were gone, I also noticed that my female was hiding cuz the male saw her eat the eggs. 3 days later I found out that the male must of moved the eggs and he managed to hatch them and raise them himself while keeping the female from eating them

    I've been advised many times that Angels must be kept in groups. I bought six.. One died a few days after purchase. Four have grown and now are are quite large. One is little bigger than when purchased. My tank is 400L or 105 US Gal. Two had tried to spawn, however the neons/cardinals quickly overwhelms the Angel couple an d all the eggs are eaten.
  • My pair got into it for the first time last week, and I was panicking, put a black sheet over the tank, turned the lights off, and stayed quiet - they were chill again the next day. First time in years they have had a spat! It started with them going ballistic on a snail that wandered too near their eggs, battering him all the way down, and then turned on each other. (They are inveterate child eaters, this spawn didn't get fertilized, I am still trying to work it out). I had no idea they switched partners every season!

    Thank you for your explanation of angelfish behaviour. People buy them thinking "beautiful fish to look at, sailing through the aquarium" . After some time surprise - fight and aggression toward other fish. I wish such people think twice before keeping angelfish, however if there is condition and devotion to keep them they are awesome ! Locking lips behaviour looks similar like kissing gourami do this ๐ŸŸ
