Peppermint Angelfish?

[FishFinatic ;)]

So I know Peppermint Angelfish can be expensive, but I would like to know...What do they eat and how aggressive are they? Could they coexist in a reef tank with invertebrates and other peaceful fish?

Not sure anyone but a public aquarium actually has hands on experience with that specific angel. 30k is the going price I’ve read. I’m interested to see as well.

Thank you! I'm also interested, but I hope that not every peppermint angelfish is 30k! But, I know what you're saying, I've heard 30k for one angel as well. Thank you for the information, I appreciate it.

If you want to talk to some people with hands on experience, post a question in this thread on RC:

The entire thread is honestly worth a read, though it will take you a couple of days to get through it. I did and there is a lot of information on vendors who are able to get these (very rarely). Success rates are not good...

I've heard from a diver that they are super hard to keep and that things like a simple water change can kill them.
