Wasn't sure where to post this?? Does anyone know where to get information on Angel Fish?? Is there any forums?

I was thinking I'd like to start an Angel tank.

Thank you.

you'll probably find some hints on www.fishgeeks.com

I'm happy to answer questions if I can... I've kept angels since 2003.

Lost track of it now but there is an American based forum that deals specifically with Angels, keep googling 8-)

I also am an avid Angel breeder of some time, breeding different types such as Albino Pearlscales, German Smokeys, Blushing Ghosts, Blue Ghosts, Koi, etc etc......happy to assist if I can.

Hmmmmm, not really...........I have done once but it's a bit of a hassle, however I may consider it again sometime. I have nothing but Veiltails and standards ready for sale ATM, the Ghosts and Blues are not ready yet, but I have several hundred of them, I'll keep you in mind when they are at a saleable age, probably 6 to 8 weeks away.

I have some Albino Pearlscales, but only about 25 or so good ones, plus my original breeding pair, and I'm not sure I want to part with any of them yet. They are a weak strain, been inter bred too many times I think and not many make it to adult size. I want to breed them out with another type of similar angel as soon as they attain adult size to hope to keep the line going..........but that's a while off yet sadly, these fish are so good looking................just gotta show 'em off again. I'll get keel hauled for this but...........they are better than Discus :argue

:O Better than Discus!?!

Blasphemy! lol.
They are gorgeous (we have an angel tank and a Discus tank here) it's -so- hard to find nice angels in Tas.
We're at a point where we're looking at getting some more fish, it's (technically) my partner's tank, but if I showed him some nice pics and a probable price, I can probably convince him! lol ;)

I'm really trying to find some Koi Angels if I can. If you know any Angel breeders in Tas who breed them I'd be forever grateful! it's that big blue gap that causes us so much trouble, I often think...

Thanks Phil!
