Spiderwoman - I haven't posted pics in a while. I will take some when I get back from my business trip
As for the flame being similar to a juvinille Clarion...sorta, but they are not even close. The great thing about large angels is that they go through coloration changes throughout their life.
The juvi clarion pictures are awesome, but if you ever saw this fish in person you would freak. The blue on it's body is electric and very striking. The orange is a mix between Orange and yellow and changes hue as the fish goes through daylight lights and actinic lights.
As it matures the blue lines dissapear and are replaced by a deeper brilliant orange and it's face turns a light hue of green.
IMO - the flame is ok for color variation in your tank and is a facinating dwarf angel. I would get one in a heartbeat if I had a smaller tank, but there is no comparison to a clarion.
