Angle fish

[lakeman70]

I'm wanting to put a Flame angel in my tank is there anything I should be conserned about?

watch out for the 45 degree angles.

what size tank do you have? some flames can much on corals, but the majority should be ok. they do need fairly stable water params and do better with alot of live rock. mine was constantly picking the algea off the live rock.

LOL slick ... "ANGLE" vs "ANGEL" one being a cut you make in wood the other being something on wings-from-above, or sometimes a kind of fish LOL

Alti,
My tank is a 75 gal with about 100lb of live rock.

that sounds perfect, and a good choice of fish for that tank too. is this a reef or fowlr. like i said before, some may nip at corals, so you might want exchange him if you get a bad apple. just keep an eye on it.

i forgot, many people recommend that you only keep one dwarf angel per tank.

Alti,
It's a reef. Thanks for the info.

well alti is right about there should be only 1 angel per tank or else they will fight
my friend has 2 angels in his tank, they only nip at each other when they get close
