    Ben I could not agree more mate.

    Those albino's are awesome.. I really like the white or negative barring on them ( if thats how one describes it )

    Thanks for making me jealous.. I'm happy with my gold's but I NEED albino's as well, the barring has caught my eye...

    Also I'm keen on some nice half blacks/browns veils.

    These Angels could be a dangerous addiction IMO..

    How many albino's did you get ?

    Cheers,

    Mark

    Hiya Mark!

    They are very addictive indeed!

    I picked up 1/2 dozen of them.
    If you are after some, let me know!
    They are cheap as chips!

    Will catch up with you soon mate!

    Cheers
    Ben

    I sure will, very tempting : )

    Have you noticed any more than the usual amount of aggresion from them in comparison to the ones from LR ?

    I have 3 of the Angels I got from LR with the spot just behind the eye and on the upper part of the gill plate....

    I see you have some with that marking aswell.

    I sure hope I can get a pair that both have that spot...

    Four eyed veiltail zebra angels ???

    It's all good I am just a little insane !!

    Cheers,

    Just wait till I post some pics of my Black Lace Veiltails, Albino Pearlscale Veiltails and Half Black veiltail pairs.

    Yep, we certainly do need an Angel fish forum.

    Hey Proteus .............how about it ?

    You've got some angelfish addicts here in need of a home

    Yep we sure do....

    I know they are not the most expensive fish and are not recommended to be kept with discus.

    But to see six or more angels ( well bred ) in a large enough tank and of the same variety is an awesome sight.....

    We need good info and discussion so we can select and breed some good Aussie stock..

    Plenty of cheap and nasty angels around with missing ventrals and other defects.

    I think a forum to improve the general knowledge of this magnificent species will lead to some wonderful angels we can all enjoy....

    Just imagine 6 well bred angels and a shoal of Congo tetras or bleeding hearts how good that would look ? Especially in a planted tank.

    The only real drawbacks to these guy's is poor quality and not being the most suitable tank mates to the king and their enjoyment of chasing down and munching smaller fish ( like neons ect... )

    Lets just hope some other interested people speak up....

    In the mean time I guess we can just do our little Angel threads from time too time...but it's not going to get all the bit's of conversation and discovery in the one place....

    Cheers,

    Mark
