@LaloJ Beautiful Multibar! Did you do anything special to get him eating?

I tried frozen foods, brine shrimp, PE mysis, clams, mussels, seafood porridge and pellets, nothing worked. He faded maybe 6 weeks after not eating any food, although I found it interesting to see him "pick up" only once, what seemed to be debris from other fish, I know angels do it in the wild but I had never seen one do it inside a tank.

Awesome looking Coral Beauty! I don't think I've ever seen a tiger tail at the lfs. I really need to learn how to photograph fish.

Thankyou - Ive seen 3 but out of those 3 only this one had orange go right into the end of the tail.

That's too bad. I think maybe it's just luck if you get one that will in an aquarium.

I think you are an angel addict masquerading as a wrasse addict. Collection looking good.

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised haha, my angels are all somewhat rare whilst my wrasses are more towards the common side.

Adorable fish, when this guy decides to feed himself, how often are you going to feed him?

I feed masstick in the mornings and evenings, and a mix of frozen around noon if I'm home. Hope that keeps working out for me.

Nothing special. Good food and water quality. I feed sponge, nori, and various frozen foods. As I understand it regals need sponge and algae or else they get constipated. It has taken a few months for the scarring to fade.

I believe it was a biota and it was eating well when I got it but I have no idea how it got the HLLE. My LFS contacted me when someone brought it in and it was otherwise healthy.
