One of my angelfish is laying eggs for the first time. How likely are baby fish, and will they survive if i dont do anything.

I get panda cory babies appearing periodically without any input from me.

Also, will i need to look out for the parents getting overly aggressive towards other fish in the tank?
 
The parents will take care of the fry. Just like you said you will have to watch them to make sure they don't beat up on the other fish.
 
They will go find with corys i have an angel tank with corys and many people breed angels and corys in the same tank
 
So. The 2 parents spent 2 days looking after their eggs, chasing anything away that got too close etc. Then the mother ate all the eggs. And then mom and pop are had an almighty bust up and now they look to be sulking at opposite ends of the tank.

I guess parenting isnt for everyone.
