Shirley's turn

Saw all three angelfish fussing in one corner the other day, but not actually chasing each other-

I stepped closer to see what was up. 

Shirley was attempting to lay eggs on the crypt balansae leaves. 

Without much success. She had no help, of course. She often missed the leaf edge, and the other two crowded close behind her to snatch and eat the eggs as they fell. Sometimes so close behind her, it looked as if they were eating the eggs immediately emerged, or actually biting her protruding breeding tube. 

I felt kinda bad for her. At least the disruption in their normal calm routine doesn't even last a day when it's Shirley laying, as there's nobody to defend her and chase the third angelfish from the area, no aggression happens.
