Soil to plant balance

I actually have no idea. I know in some cases, the parents will eat the fry (babies) if they are in the same tank. I don't know if that applies to Angel fish.

I'd love to see some picture of them.

I know guppies will eat their young.
Why not post photo of the tank!!! Love to see it!!

yes, angel fish are NOT good mommas and they WILL eat their young. They would be laying unfertilized eggs. in order to get babies to hatch, you need perfect water perameters. Also, i believe you need to let the eggs hatch and then quickly scoopup the babies and put them in a breeder tank.

GO to aquariacentral.com and post there, i bet a bunch of people can help you out a lot

Good luck!

no idea

had a friend at work that raised angel fish, he had a bunch of angel fish of all diffentent sizes..

duno, I wish you luck, and a picture would be nice.

Have you visited that forum yet? my fiance is on there alot.. his s/n is fishymatty (just incase you see him around)

Anyways, with aquarium SOIL you are really looking into a substrate that has fertilizers correct? We use a specific brand because with many brands, the second you put the water in, or put it in the water (which ever order you do it) you will get a THICK NASTY MUD. The one we use does do this as much. With this, you do not need gravel or sand, but you can use it on top as a decoration, but it will prove to be more work than you probably want to keepit looking nice.

Also, what kinds of plants did you get? some plants require different amounts and types of lights. With a 60, you are going to have a lot of dark spots in the tank if you do not have reflectors on you light hood. Also, with a 60gal planted tank, you will definitely want to look into injected CO2. The CO2 helps along the photosynthesis process and your plants will flourish, if you do not have enough CO2, your plants will definitely die, and with only 2 angels in there, chances are you will not have enough CO2 to sustain your plants (depending on which kinds of plants they are)

You also will have to make sure that if you ever have the need to medicate your fish, you need to make sure the medication is plant safe. The basic ICK medication will kill all of your plants, you would need to buy a different brand, or use other methods for killing that disease.

Finally, with plants, you have lots of oxygen and lighting in the tank, which means the chance for LOTS of algae. You have to maintain the CO2 balance and the oxygen output (by the plants) and the water quality in order to avoid getting over run by algae.

I hope this helps.. if you tell me what kind of plants that you got, i can definitely help you out a lot more

Good info - I tried a tank once, but it just isn't a talent of mine. I admire others who are successful.
