Got three new fish.... An anthias named daisy.. A tang (sunshine and a flame named rose... Lol.... Love going to the pet store w my 7yr old... She gets all exited... Helps me pick the fish and names them.... Lol 

Gorgeous fish! Watch out for that flame angel if you have or plan on getting any corals!

 

[russo36]

I have some corals.... He doesn't bother them.... He only picks at the rocks and is an algae eating machine.... Let's hope that doesn't change

 

[russo36]

Btw thanks....lol.... As for the angel I've seen them on a few tanks w reefs and where I got it from said he would b reef safe.... I hope he doesn't develop an appetite for corals

I've always wanted a flame angel, they are insanely gorgeous, but I've always been worried about the horror stories of heard that they'll be perfectly fine for years and then take out entire zoa colonies over night or something.

Omg that would suck! Well I hope he stays away! Thanks for the input I'll be watching more closely.

My Flame angel went rogue on my after introducing open brain and acans, started picking on them a bit at first then more and more until it got to the point the corals would not even extend, then I got rid of the flame.

I had a Flame in my tank for many years and he never bothered anything. I think keeping them well fed helps also.

 

[russo36]

I only feed my fish once a day for now... I'm trying to get them used to pellets but so far they are not interested. They only seem to like mysis shrimp.... My tang eats a lot of seaweed I put on a clip... All the others don't bother w it. I want to get them used to pellets So I can put an automatic feeder... But so far no success!
