    So I figured Id share with you guys my two New fish. My Passer Angelfish and My Moorish Idol. The Bellus Angel got crazy sick and was sent sick so I tried :( The passer is in the 46g on a Test Run. To see how he will do with clams and LPS (Considering the Big tank has way more expensive stuff in it) And to top it off it has the same disease the Bellus Did... -Not A Happy Camper-

    So far so good. Hasnt touched any of the corals. The Idol Originally Was in the 120g. However The Tangs Wanted nothing to do with this fish. Regardless Im keeping him eating till I find him a home. (He likes the oddest foods, Flake Food. ON Omnivore Gel Food and Angelfish Diet lol-makes sense though, sponges etc-)

    Anyways Their Both In my 46g Right now. Enjoy a few pics for time being. Im hoping to kick this disease out of the angel and get him in the big tank asap!

    As always, beautiful fish....I am so sorry about the illness - seems to be a bit of a trend for several people here lately :( such a shame to have a sick fish shipped to you in the first place.

    So the Moorish Idol will not stay? Or did you mean that you have to juggle fish between two tanks to get a happy combination?

    Best of luck with both of them!

    I honestly dont know about the Idol. The tangs wont let up on him. And he refuses to eat in the big tank, Tried a few times. However in the smaller tank He eats like a pro is content... Loves swimming in the powerheads. He had a spurt of ick after the drama in the big tank and kicked it in the matter of a few days. Havent seen it since. I thought He would have gotten it again cause he got his streamer chopped off by the powerhead overnight. But no ick or bacterial infection 5 days later...
