	Angels spawned and yellow lab holding!
FishMan10005 Enthusiast Posts: 189 Kudos: 127 Votes: 4 Registered: 09-Oct-2003	Ive got a female yellow lab holding eggs or fry!! I also looked in my tank today nd my angels were cleaning the filter intake, then about 2 hours later i saw them laying eggs!! Pics here: http://photobucket.com/albums/v355/FishMan10005/Angels%20spawning/ Question- I was watching them lay eggs, and as tehy passed eggs that had already been layed, they fell off the filter intake tube. Why is this? Did they not clean it good enough to where the eggs will stick?
