coral beauty angel.

Hi. I have a 75gal fowlr tank. Its been running for about 3 months now. It has 2 ocellerious clowns,a royal gramma and a purple fire fish. W a few snails as well. My question is this. How long should I wait to add the angel? The only other fish going in is a mandarin but that's a while down the road. Possibly a Christmas wrasse.

Dwarf Angels can be slow to accept prepared food....As long as your Live Rock is abundant with "stuff" for him to pick at while he adjusts to a captive diet, you should be fine. I would also say as long as your parameters have been staying steady, primarily PH. Coral Beauty are very hardy once established, mine is over 5 years now.

Ah very good thank u. My ph holds at about 8.2 steady w about 35-40 lbs on LR

I usually suggest waiting 6 months unless you're using really established live rock (from another tank, or that really has a lot of algae, etc). Once they're established, they are a hardy fish, definitely have to agree with that. Try to find one that EATS in the store.
