    I see the regals listed as "expert only fish". I now it is hard to get them to eat but how hard are they to take care of. I have kept expert only species before with sucess.:confused::confused::confused:

    Angels have special food requirements and can be finicky. Sponge is normally needed in their diets.

    Look into their food and tank size needs.

    Well it was going to be the first fish in my 120 which is fine because average minimum tank size it 100 gallons, I know that. Second off I also know you can feed it special angelfish frozen formula with sponges and turnicates. What I want to know is if they were weaned etc.
    I did basic research I cannot find more knowledge about them though...
