The EAS Open House was a great success with about 20 visitors and 8 stops. It was great to see everyones fish rooms and tank setups. The peoples choice for best tank setup was Jim Saunders planted tank with dwarf Saggitaria. I would like to thank everyone that attended and the generosity of those who allowed us into their homes. I look forward to next year for even more stops and attendee's. Scott Ray

Subject: angel post on mesage board

I tried to post this, but it didn't seem to take.....

There are two good ways to raise angels, artificially, and by the
parents in a loose approximation of nature. Any tweener methods are
likely to cause harm. If you are going to remove the fry from the
parents, decide to remove them as eggs before they are developed very
far and all still stuck on the breeding slate or cone. If you attempt
to remove the free swimming fry, the angels will regard you as a
predator, and their only natural defense to preventing the success of
a predator is to eat the fry before the predator can start making an
easy living off the angelfish community. You may catch a few fry the
first time, but they will learn and gobble them as soon as they see
you touch the net. Eventually you will have taught them to become fry
or egg eaters. It can easily take three or four tries in the right
conditions for a pair of angels to learn the moves to raise their fry
and care for them. Eventually most pairs will succeed, and you will
know when it's time to remove the fry at the point where in nature
they would be striking out on their own. The pair will start showing
the fry "the door", but in an aquarium there isn't one, so it has to
be you. Catching out the pair and leaving the fry behind is always
the better method. It reduces the chance that the pair will squabble
and break the pair bond, even in the artifical system although then
the slate should be downsized into a smaller tank and slate removal
is quick. Even pairs that have long been used to having the eggs
stolen by you every week or so, may raise a brood, if you leave a
slate in because you are out of angel-raising tank space. I'll end by
repeating that you should make a decison early and stick to it how a
pair will be groomed, either artificially or "naturally" and plan
your set up and equipment to be right for that method.

When I had angels, once the fry were free swimming I moved the
parents.  Not knowing how your setup is, that may not work for you.  I
had 2 29 gallon tanks to make this work.  Of course, if one of the
parents started getting beat up by the other, you may want to even
separate them.  It depends on if you can move them.  I found it hard
to move fry as the parents would get upset and then you have to be
real quick to get them before the parents.  But getting the fry away
from the parents - whichever you move - is the best bet to get to
raise them.  Some parents will eventually become good, but almost
anything could spook them and then the fry are gone.

I have a breeding pair of angel fish.  Their third batch of eggs made
it to free swimming for 5 days (further than the previous 2 times),
then they all disappeared.  Should I remove the fry when they become
free-swimming and if I do what is the best set-up to move them to.
They are getting ready to spawn again and I would like to have some
survive (I have been feeding them baby brine shrimp).
