    Thanks zesty and OFK. He's got a lot of blue. Im really impressed with how much he's eating. Literally 5 minutes of entering the tank he was inhaling pellets. I'll get some new pics soon

    I've had one in my tank for two months. It's way early, but so far no issues. After a lot of reading I got the impression they'll nip at corals, but will not destroy a healthy SPS colony. It's definitely a gamble, but they're so cool looking. I hope he behaves perfectly for you!

    Same to you servillius. They are my favorite angel fish and I'm so happy to have a chance to raise a healthy little guy. He's eating so well, I'm still amazed. By the way, your tank is looking amazing!

    You know, this thread is suspiciously lacking a pic of him in his new home.

    Also thanks, now I just have to convince mine not to eat it all :)

    This really makes me miss mine. He was just starting to change into his adult colors when the Brook took hold.
