Bump for more! If you can't choose 1, let's see them all! :clap2:

Thanks. It is a Centropyge venustus --- purple masked dwarf angel.

And a beautiful one at that! My wife got me one for my B-day last august but unfortunately it didn't make it (collection issue I suspect as in the final hours I noticed a small infected area that was about the size of a needle in its abdomen)

My "centerpiece" fish would be my passer angel as it is the largest and most active. Followed by my 3 leopards (1 regular female, and a potters pair) which are my favorites that I own now.

Regular Female Leopard wrasse:

Potters pair:
darn near impossible to get even a somewhat decent pic of....sorry lol

Nice anthias m&m. Love to have a pair some day.

Took me a few years to hunt down a pair, absolutely love them.

Awesome looking passer angel and leopard. How is the passer with your corals and other fish? Also, any clams in the DT with him? Trust me on the pics of the potters, I've got a very active one that runs with my tangs and pics just can't focus quick enough.

Thanks. Stunning as just a single one, but a pair must be even better.

The passer has been good for a long time, with sps. However lately I have noticed him picking at the tips of especially my finer tipped pieces. He has nipped acans and a trachy so I removed those and never tested it before.... no clams but I wouldn't risk it, it is a large healthy fish and if it gets hungry it will go for whats there I'm sure

Yeah I have tried 3 cameras and probably 10000 tries and never gotten anything I'd really consider decent from the potters pair. They are always moving, and have alot of quick motion.... its like they want me to look like a liar because I can't prove I have a sweet pair lol

 

[chort55]

I have even tried the autoset, sport mode on my nikon L120 which takes a series of quick pics and still have been unable to get a decent pic from the potters pair lol

 

[el richie]

First these two

Then I added a pair of venustus that were healthy for about 3 to 4 months and then
BOOM!!!! Tank crash! Now I'm down to two leopard wrasses! ***

I agree. I'm hunting a large angel myself and that's a nice one. Even if I had to lose my 2 clams and 3 meat corals, it would be worth it. Thanks

Yep. I know fast when he does laps around the tangs, LOL!

I'm not going to try to hard, but after I do LEDs, I'm going to give it a shot with a sport mode as well. We'll see.

Nice. Been wanting one for a bit, but I don't think my orange shoulder would let me. He's a tank hog and even at 4.5 inches, he tries to control all 8 feet of my 240.
