Oh, but now we're offended anyway. Nyx is just pacing back and forth, I think she wants to bite you now!

The Regal angel is still at the store after ten weeks. We have decided it is not in the best interest of the fish to ever consider him. I have offered him to a canreef friend with a well established tank and enough experience to give him the home he needs. She is thinking about it at the moment and doing her research on the fish... She already has angels and has had them for the long term.

If she declines I will offer him to another canreef friend with a well established tank. He is still safe and sound at the LFS and will not be in my tank, so people can calm down. He will be getting the best home possible.

I am glad to hear you will not be adding this fish to your reef.

A good decision. Good for you. Sit back and enjoy your tank for a while, it is heavily stocked and still young. Even without adding anything else you are still going to have some uphill battles in the weeks/months to come. Sit tight and ride it out. Lots of good people here to help you out.
