    I went back and forth on what to replace the coral beauty with and finally decided on a pygmy angel and a purple firefish. Somebody nipped at the firefish's tail last night, but I haven't seen aggression from any of the other fish. The wrasse just kind of swims up and gives them the evil eye. The clowns have just been curious about the newcomers so far.

    You must have picked up on that part that I like blue....a lot!!!!

    The cleaner shrimp is thrilled with the pygmy angel. Finally, something that will submit to his cleaning again! Everything else runs (swims) from the shrimp at cleaning time - poor deprived shrimp.

    Nice new additions;)
    I especially love your fire fish.... One of my drean fish.... Although, I think I have too many dream fish. I may need to build a sea-quarium of about 20,000gals to keep all my dream fish;D;D;D;D;D;D;D
    Wouldn't that be an interesting build thread;)

    A bicolor and what he has are completely different.

    Be very careful when mixing pygmy and dwarf angels. They are extremely territorial.

    Atlantic Pygmy Angel, Cherub Pygmy Angel

    Scientific Name Centropyge argi
    Max. Size: 3 inches (7.5 cm) Tank Size: 30 gallons
    Aggression: semi-aggresive
    Hardiness: very hardy
    Reef-Safe: usually, but they will sometimes nip at corals and clams causing damage. They seem to be one of the more reef safe of the dwarf angels.
    Available as captive-bred: occasionally
