The Angel Lovers Thread

I don't like to generalize but my cherub is NO angel ! He bullies any new angelfish addition but settles down in a few days. My angelfish
(the cherub and the flameback is in another tank).

Angels will always be aggressive around other angels being in the tank. It’s just a few days that’s needed to settle the fish.

That aquascape is stunning! What size tank is it? I’d love to pair off my mel.

It’s stunning! Just more reasons why I’d love a peninsula. It really gives more room for the rock scape.
 
This guy still won't let me take his picture.. I'll keep trying

Couldn't pass it up... so far, so good.
Man, this is one of my dream angels… Looks like you got a Red Sea variant too. Absolute stunners, you’ll definitely learn to forgive him if he nips.

LFS took him in on a tank breakdown. Eats EVERYTHING, finally realized she's the biggest in the tank so he's not shy anymore. Like I said, I couldn't pass it up!
 
Genicanthus melanospilos being a beauty as always. The streamers he used to have decided to vanish unfortunately. I hope that they regrow as he isn’t a full female though, one of my dreams was to have a fish with streamers (as well as a medium sized Angel) so I got the male over a female for that reason.

Any long term Asfur keepers? Do they get big, as in anywhere near the 16” online?

I love me some angels. Top ones are:
Majestic
Goldflake
Regal
Bandit
Blueline

In no order. Asfur would be = to one of them.

Dwarfs harder to pick, in my place we don’t get as many Centropyge species and since I prefer tank bred, some of them are the more difficult species like Multibar, Venusta and Colini. Lack of BIOTA CB options like the Coral Beauty which leaves me with CB Lemonpeels from Bali Aquarich.

I have seen Biota’s Coral Beauties imported into Hong Kong, but no mainland importer is willing to get them wholesale because wild Coral Beauties from Indonesia and the Philippines are too cheap. Lots of people in this part of the world haven’t quite caught up to the idea of paying more for tank bred fish, despite failing over and over again with wild fish.
