PT Barnum was right

 

Yup there's a fool born every minute ;D

 

I believe he used the word "sucker"

 

Guess I'd be one (a "sucker")...if I could afford it, that Conspicillatus Angel would be at the top of my list.

Unfortunatly he costs about as much as my tank and everything in it. :-/

 

What strange but interesting markings on that angel fish's face. I wonder if he'd eat your corals

 

Not a question I can even afford to ask!
You know you are in trouble when LFS does not even quote price.

This species is not much more difficult to care for than other larger angels, but don't attempt it if you have to ask how to get a finicky fish to eat. It is usually slow to begin feeding, but it can do great with expert care, which it does require. The fish in the lower right has been in our personal tanks about 15 years-- we stopped counting. What's the secret? Years of experience.
