Progress of the angelfish eggs

  • pH:
  • Temp:
  • KH:
  • GH:
  • NH4:
  • NO2:
  • NO3: 2
  • PO4: 0.75
  • Iron:
  • Dosing: 25 mL Excel, 11.25 ppm NO3, 1.6 ppm PO4
  • NO3:PO4 Cumulative Dosing Ratio: 46.25:5.2 = 8.9

Notes:
The female angelfish hung out by her netted eggs all day, attacking the male when he approached too close, for some reason. Occasionally, she would try to get to the eggs. Maybe she was frustrated by being blocked by the netting.

Over the course of the day, more and more of the eggs turned white , showing that they were infertile. By the end of the day, maybe about a third of the eggs had turned white.
