Holy smokes! Coral beauties are breeding!
 

I've been noticing a lot of digging going on in my 120g fowlr/softies reef tank. Just tonight, noticed my pair of coral beauty dwarf angels hanging out in the big "hole" they dug and going through courtship/breeding behaviour. VERY COOL!

Doubt I'll be able to get any of the eggs/fry to survive since they're in a tank full of fish, but neat to see dwarf angels breed in my tank anyways.

Congratulations Anthony! That is really exciting, you know you are doing a good job when your fish are happy enough to spawn. Maybe the dragonets will be next :mrgreen:

If you do want to try and breed them......... you need a tall tank because they are pelagic spawners and they need a high vertical space.

You can probably make your own egg catcher.

The main problem with dwarf angels is that the larva need really small food like ciliates or zooplankton nuphii (sp?).

If your interested............ I've got some books you can read.

Cheers,
Vic
