How do I get a breeding pair?
BUYING A BREEDING PAIR can be expensive. It's usually better to buy four to eight small Angels in strains and colors that please you. Angelfish don't know what color they are, and will mate with any other variety. The common Silver is fascinating: stripes darken and lighten with moods. They may be stronger, less shy, and better parents than other strains. Breeding Silver and Gold adults will throw 1/4th gold fry... nice for variety.

Pterophyllum Scalare The Angelfish
Pterophyllum scalare, whose common name is the Angel or Angelfish, was one of the first and is the most popular of the New World Cichlids brought into the United States. There are actually two species of Angels, Pterophyllum scalare and Pterophyllum altum. This article will concentrate on the former and the more common. Angels are relatively flat or laterally compressed fish that attain a body size of approximately 3 inches. They have extraordinarily long (high) dorsal and anal fins that can add 6 or so inches to their height. A full-grown angel can measure maybe 5 inches long and 9 or 10 inches high. There is also a mutation, called the veiltail, that adds 3 or 4 inches to length and width. I have seen large veiltail angels that were a foot high and 8 inches long, laid out. The original angelfish is a silver fish with black stripes. See caution below for additional information.
