Like I said earlier, it'll be trial and error. Angels like to choose their partners so you have to widen their selection range. Do this in a large tank obviously.

Odds of getting a pair

Question: Can I get a pair of angels from keeping two angels?
Answer:
With only two angels it is hard to get a pair. It has been done, but getting five or six angels and growing them up gives you a better chance for a pair. The chances of getting at least one pair from six angelfish is 95%.
Chance of Pairs forming: (This is not exact but can be used to predict pairs)


1 fish 100% no pair
2 fish 50% for a pair
3 fish 75% for a pair
4 fish 87.5% for a pair
5 fish 93.8% for a pair
6 fish 96.9% for a pair
7 fish 98.4% for a pair
8 fish 99.2 % for a pair
 
Ok so how many do u reccomend an in wut size tank?
Wut about 4-5 in a 55?
Any reccomendations on where 2 pickup a nice tank?
 
in a 55g 4-5 is fine and u might get a pair. Make sure they are all the same size. do u have somewhere to put the ones that didnt pair up? or the ones that did? have u dont research on how to raise the fry? good luck in whatever u do :) what kind of angels are they?
 
idk
she is is gray w/ black stripes and red eyes
idk how 2 post pixes =(
i wanna set em up a nice tank, but do u think a pair wud b 2 aggressive 2 hav w/ 2 or 3 other angels?
 
what i would do is buy like 3 more and put them all in the same tank raise them up (if young)
and feed them live food or normal(flake) (normal somehow worked with me!:))
and then they'll pair out you move the others to another tank and leave the best pair in the same and put a piece of slate in and they should lay there eggs on there and then people would know the rest!!:D:)
 
I'm trying 2 convince the woman 2 Let me get a55 for them :banher:
I have been researching and I think I could raise some fry. Qick Q, if I put 5 in a 55 and 2 of them paired off would I have 2 remove the others?
 
Yes, either remove the pair or the others.
 
y? do they play well w/ others while theyr breeding?

i want them 2 all b frends :cry:

A pair will defend their site and fry. That doesn't make them any friendlier than they were before they paired off.
