Should i add a flame angel as my 4th and final fish?

  1. No, i wouldn't risk it with the corals.

    I hate saying don drip but IMO its just adding stress to a stressed fish! I wouldn't do it unless there's a huge salinity difference!

    I agree with Cosmo on the acclimating part. I don't like dripping either, but I do feel it is safer and allows more time for the fish to get used to your water params before adding it to the display tank though.

    I agree with both of you! But if pH and salinity is close, swapping some water in the bag is fine.

    Liveaquaria sells them for $20, so that is a good price. Minimum tank size is 30 gallons, so do it lol.
