    yea they were so tiny I dont think they were ready to be for sale. my clown could have gulped them right up.

    And I do LOVE potters.. I saw one once in my LFS but it was like 60$! wasn't sure if I was willing to to get it.. but I do agree they are beautiful I like the rusty's too

    How was your weekend qt? Going to assume you didn't go fishie shopping since there are no pics :p as for the flame, yeah, they are prob one of the most common ones people go 'ooo' over... i did. I know they can be peckers too. So far he has done fine but all i have in my tank right now are a couple leathers and a $hit ton of SMG mushrooms so... guess we'll see

    KCBrad has a flame back angel in her reef with no issues. I tried a flame and it did not work out well. I have a friend with a coral beauty that is fine and another friend with one that had to be removed from their reef. The main issue with dwarf flames is that the ones that eat nothing but sponge are hard to care for and the ones that are easier to keep are reef safe with caution. Reef safe with caution pretty much means out of 100 fish, 99 will be perfect citizens, but the last fish will start nipping and eating your inverts eventually.

    my old office had a flame in their reef; though to be honest i unfortunately didn't have time to sit back there and enjoy/observe the tank so can't say if he was a nipper though the corals looked great... (Which is amazing considering how they set that tank up... long story) Mine eats very well, it goes after everything i've dropped in the tank as of yet. Hopefully it will stay that way, especially when i start adding stuff.
