Good Day:

I recently added a Flame Angel to my tank and was just wondering what others use to feed him.

I am using New Life Spectrum Thera A Regular Formula, frozen Mysis shrimp, and two Brightwell products: Amino Omega & Garlic Power.

Thanks,

Michael

I am trying to use DropBox to imbed the photos. The link is a https. Is this compatible with this forum? It doesn't seem to work.

Thanks,

Michael

PS. What is the easiest way to imbed my pictures?

In the wild, flame angels feed on algae primarily. You might want to feed yours some algae/spirulina based food. Your tank looks very "clean". Not sure if the tank has enough algae or the correct types for your flame angel.
You flame looks good, except the tail is missing a piece. Is any fish fighting with your flame?

Hi:

I introduced the Flame Angel and wrasse last week. The female clown is a little bossy. They don't seem to fight much anymore. I think he lost the bit on the tail the day I put him in the tank.

Do most fish sooner or later get along? Or will I have a possible conflict having these two fish?

The flame does "graze" on the rock but there isn't much there. I have a bit of green hair algae but doesn't eat it.

I might stop at the LPS and see what they have for plant based foods

Thanks,
Michael
