Rebecca Kim Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hello Everyone, I'm Rebecca from Idaho. Been back into fish keeping about 1 year! Have been following Cory and all of the groups wonderful wisdom! I have 3 tanks currently, with Panda Cory Cats, Platies, Harlequin Rasboras, Cardinal Tetras, Black Neons, Bettas and 1 new Angelfish. I was wondering if you could help me ID this new Angelfish. Came from LFS, under "assorted". What type or types do you think it is? Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 In my book that would be a marbled angelfish, and a very nice one at that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca Kim Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 Thank you Daniel! It is very curious and eating well. ☺️ Is it too young to sex yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Definitely too young to sex. I often get several juvenile angelfish and raise them up in the same tank. Eventually you will notice that 2 of the angelfish hang out together all the time. At that point you have pair. It is still probably not clear with a pair is who is who, but once they begin breed, and I know this sounds obvious, it is the female that lays the eggs. It only then I know what sex my angelfish are. If anyone else on the Forum has better method I would love to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca Kim Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Forgot to ask. Is this a "Veil Marble"? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Not likely, but it looks it still pretty small and there is still room for more fin extendage, but probably not veil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca Kim Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Ok thank you. I just love it so much, I'm thinking of getting another small one. If it turned out they were both males, would they be aggressive towards each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 If they were the only 2 angels in a 29 gallon they could probably work it out, but there might be some head butting (or maybe not), but nothing fatal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
