Angel fish

I personally don't think they would be given even a look at the Angels' eggs by the adult Angels - although some Cories can be quite resourceful after lights out!

I would take them out - just to be on the safe side.

When you say they are 'proven', have they laid and hatched eggs before? If the answer is yes, you should be in for a (comparatively) easy ride although the change of environment might slightly upset their 'rhythm' for the first few spawns (but there again, it might not).

Once (hopefully) you have free-swimming fry and the time comes to remove the adults here is a little ploy which I have found most useful. Assuming you still have Red Cherry Shrimps, you could put in a half-dozen or so to act as a very efficient 'clean-up crew'. They'll mop up any uneaten food (but don't use that as an excuse to skip regular small water changes) and - hopefully - breed and ultimately provide the growing fry with some valuable live food. They'll certainly get good exercise chasing them until they've grown big enough to consume them.

In my opinion - newly hatched brineshrimp each and every time - best food by far for the fry.

You might want to look into getting a small supply of eggs in advance, they don't 'go off' in the fridge - I was reading that it's even better to keep the eggs frozen, but I've never found this to be a necessity myself - any views on this subject?

Doubtless they would but for optimum growth and health the live food wins out every time.
And, in my opinion, newly-hatched Brineshrimp is the no.1 food for them. Microworms are OK, but not in the same league. It could be that other members would disagree, those are only my views. Opinions invited, please.
