Mongbean Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Hey guys, My female angelfish is acting a bit odd. She had a sore on here left side which was white but now has gone black and the bump is disappearing. But she seems to be twitching which i have never seen before. A tube has also appeared on her anus which i have never seen before. She has on only just paired up with a male angel my tank recently. Should i be concerned?

Angel in Disguise Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I think she may be ready to lay eggs! Are they cleaning a surface, like a leaf or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongbean Posted December 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 They seem to defend the whole tank but no one particular area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel in Disguise Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 The female normally drops her tube out to lay the eggs if thats the tube you are asking about, its abit hard to tell without a photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongbean Posted December 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 My camera is not the best. Any other behaviour traits to look out for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martib Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 have they got suitable places to spawn??maybe thats why they are going off in the whole tank?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongbean Posted December 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 They have many places they could spawn but maybe they don't think any of them would be suitable. I might add in a slate tile and a small up turned pot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
