Why the angelfish eggs turn white?

Eggs that were not successfully fertilized will turn white. The parents will usually eat them. If all the eggs are turning white it is possible that you have two females, one of which will mimick the behavior of a male but of course cannot fertilize the eggs. This happens sometimes. Also, be aware that it may appear that angelfish are eating the healthy (translucent or amber) fertilized eggs, if there are any. This is their "cleaning" motion...you will notice that the parents will get close to the eggs and use their small pectoral fins to fan them. They put their mouths close to the eggs too, my theory is that they have some type of sensory ability to tell if eggs are healthy/clean this way. The fin fanning prevents crud from settling on the eggs and ensures that they do not get fungal infections.
