I might end up with some not so rare ones(i.e. cheaper angel fish). I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

George ask you LFS to order T size (tiny) angelfish from the suppliers stock list. The price is affordable but you have to take the time to feed them often after they arrive. I would be fun to watch them grow.

Wow that was brave of someone to put clams in that tank. I wonder why they were all closed up?

Amazing tank though! I really want a FOWLR tank that I could fill with Angelfish.

Thanks for the tip.
When I buy fish, I always try to get the smallest I can find. The reasons are 1. smaller fish seem to ship better than bigger fish for the same specie.
2. smaller ones are easier to be trained to eat prepared food than bigger ones.
3. For not reef safe fish, like angel fish, hopefully smaller ones haven't developed a taste for corals.
4. And of course, like you mentioned, smaller ones usually cost less than bigger ones, and fun to watch a fish grows up in my aquarium.
