Default So you want to add an angelfish to your reef??

This is the risk you're taking...

That sucks!

I'm a big fan of angels...
Have kept dwarves...
Was planning on keeping an emperor from juvenile onwards...

Curious, what size and type of angel?
What's size and type of reef?
Feeding schedule?

Too bad for those pieces, but I'm thinking you won't give up on angels!

It was a Multibar Angelfish. He did that damage in about a week. Little prick.

Oh yeah, but Hippos are like the least reef safe Tangs there are. They are bad fishies.

I feel for you, because I love both my multibar and my SPS. It would be a tough choice...
Lucky you found such a little one!!! I'm not willing to give up PE for an Angelfish. I was hoping I'd get lucky. He's happy now in a really big tank so I guess we both win. He's a $1500 fish now...

Sorry about your losses.
A Blueface??? Ok you're just plain nuts...

Sorry to hear Mindy

I’ve had my majestic angel in my tank for close to 8 years now. I’ve been fortunate. I put it in my frag tank for close to a month to monitor it to make sure it wasn’t a nipper. I also put a clam in there. So far so good. He is the biggest fish in the tank.
