Curious to those who have had angel pairs spawn in their tanks what they saw as the frequency of the angels spawning? I have a pair of Flames that have spawned several times in the past, but as of late they have begun doing their thing with much more regularity. Awesome thing to see happen in my tank just curious if them spawning almost nightly is "normal"?
 
Flame angels can spawn year round, and nightly or almost nightly. but with varying clutch sizes and fertility related to lunar cycles and seasonality. sometimes they will taper down during the winter with shorter days, and lower temperatures.
 
Mine spawned almost every night. I have three females in the tank. I have not always pay attention to which female or all of them spawned. On the night with spawn, the male is super active, darting in and out on full display. I will keep count how many night over the next 2 weeks.
When I see a spawn, there is always multiple females spawn, never just one. Maybe living together sync their cycles.
