Multicolor?

I wish haha, it’s for my 4’ tank and definitely tried to break the bank (Luckily I had £30 store credit and 10% off livestock as they were doing an event).

I'm intrigued, is it a regal angelfish? Unfortunately I lost my coral beauty angel a couple of days ago due to the cold wave, I still have my eibli angel in qt, it seems that the ravages of bacterial diseases have passed and there is a guy interested in buying it, I think he will leave, and with the death of my CB, it seems I have space for butterflyfish.

it’s a shame to hear about your angels, although a butterfly sounds perfect

You’ll have to wait for an answer however you won’t be waiting too long as I nearly have him acclimating (just 5 minutes to go).

Exciting! My money is on either a regal or some sort of Apolemichthys.

Thanks, you're right that people are pretty inclusive here, I've never wanted a CBB so much until I started reading maintenance and feeding threads here on the forum lol.

I wish it was - I nearly picked up a male Genicanthus caudovittatus but it was unfortunately part of a pair. Here he is (This photo was taken just after he did his ‘routine’ of spitting water at me).

Awesome fish, I knew it from the beginning, that guy looks pretty healthy and of good size, I wish you very good luck.

He’s incredibly active and is loving the tank so far. Only two fish have been aggressive and even then, it wasn’t high aggression. In terms of size, he’s about 2.5-3 inches currently so still a juvenile, well actually maturing. I never realised that as juveniles these guys have yellow anal fins. I was thinking at first when I saw him that his anal fin looked rather yellow but ignored it.

Wow he’s very small.

You just know when I saw this guy I had to get him! I was going to end up with the second but he was a coral muncher and also didn’t have the beautiful misbar at his tail.
