What a nice juvenile interruptus.

Well I have my juvenile interruptus out of qt and in acclimation box in DT. Been in there for 2 days now. My big male doesn't even seam to notice her. I plan to release later today. Hope it goes well.

I am going for a "pair" themed tank. I have a Flagfin/Goldflake hybrid paired with a goldflake. That's the only other angels other than the interruptus that I have now.

How is the Goldflake in the reef?

It's a FOWLR not a reef tank.

How big is your male? I’m thinking of getting a small one to try to pair with my male, but I’m not sure he’s big enough at 3-4”. I think the huge size difference between your two makes it easier to pair them up.

Here’s mine:

Here’s mine:

Beautiful! My male is 5 1/2 to 6 inches. He's the bully of the tank! Always chases the other fish, except for the Flagfin/goldflake hybrid. He's the peace maker and will not go after anyone, but just swims in between the male interruptus and who ever he's chasing at the moment, and flares his fins at him. Then the interruptus backs down. They are both about the same size too, the hybrid may be a little bigger. Yours might be a little small now to pair, but keep in mind they are seasonal fish and usually available only from Dec to Feb. It took me 1 1/2 to 2 years to find a juvenile so you might want to start looking now. Just make sure you get a juvenile that still has her eyespot and it should be ok. I even printed off larger pictures of interruptus and taped to the sides of the QT tank to make sure she didn't turn male. I don't know if that really works or not but it won't hurt either.

Thanks for the reply! I think I'll wait until next collecting season to give it a shot. By then my male should be bigger.

By the way, I got mine from Jordan at Among the Reef as well. He's an excellent source.

I have yet to see a rare fish collection as nice as what @acesq has in his lovely home.


Meanwhile here are 2 of my angelic babies

Taking it slow with my 8 footer so not much else in the tank for now ; )
But once I'm done, it should be something special.

Nice! I hope to have a pair of bandits one day.

My 2 angels, added at the beginning of march.
I had to remove my yellow tang who was going to murder them, at the same time i exchange my adult purple tang for a baby, so now the angels are the biggers in the tank. The regal seem to have a little irritation near the gill but it's slowly healing.

For now they behave with the corals, just the occasional nip.

BoTom update! I love this fish.
