I have 16 angels which are collected randomly and left in a 75 gallon tank 60% of them are siblings. They are all adults above 12 to 16 months. And now its been almost two months they are together and doesnt show any mating rituals. All are very active and agressive to each other since then. I feed them best quality flake, pellet and frozen blood worms. And temperature is at 28-30 degree Celsius (82-86F). WHAT COULD BE THE REASON???
Group of angel fishes not pairing up.!!

Remove some of them I may be wrong but I'm thinking too many in the 75 and too much activity among them.
But i have had other batches paring up in the same size… its really clueless is nt it?
Keep up the water quality, add some vertical slate or Amazon swords or driftwood, and throw in some live California blackworms
Fish are fickle like that. I got a mismatched adopted angelfish pair that has produced at least 4 clutches of 6 week old fry and several batches of wrigglers/eggs i destroyed (eggs) they were breeding on anything and now 2 years old refuse to breed in the 75g tank with no other angelfish around for months as soon i kicked them out from the 20g long after getting my basement back in order and have been bickering amongst each other constantly chasing one another i might put in the columbian silver juvies i got in another tank in there to see what they do once the fire eels move out to reduce bioload. And the pair was breeding in the 112g fighting everyone else off in that tank when they were only 7 months old hence them being alone in the first place SMH
