I thought Regals were really difficult to have? How is it doing? Also, dont any of your fish bother your Cowfish? I heard they are very shy.

I believe they have a difficult time feeing and are more sensible to water changes.
love the tank

The fish look good but for their sake, I really hope you've got like a 300 gallon tank cycling or something.
That tank is WAY overcrowded.
Every fish in there gets huge, if given the chance to survive.
Not flaming, just warning you, a crash in inevitable. You need to lose a few.
Research before you buy.

Tank looks good but a bite overcrowded. You should upgrade.

Based on my experience, as long as the angels are either from different oceans, or are of a different species (pomacanthus, euxiphipops, or holocanthus) then you shouldnt have a problem. But, this is my experience, but I have done my research on keeping angels together, so RESEARCH before you buy. Those two, the blueface and the regal will be fine because they are of two different species.

So do you plan on keeping this stock list in the 125 for long or are you upgrading?
To save fish, I hope you're not going to add anything else to this tank regardless of the "deal" you get.
I'm sorry, but it's disappointing to see nice looking fish crammed into your tank.
And it seems like you're ignoring any posts regarding the issue that this many fish should never be in your tank.
Hope you come to your senses and educate yourself before you make another irresponsible decision.

Nice regal by the way! I've seen more colorful bluefaces in the past, but he still looks very nice...although it could very well just be your camera. Just out of curiousity, are you planning to upgrade anytime soon?

Looks like his tank is already overstocked and unhealthy based on the brown algae we see in his pics.

GRR wow....no not adding anything....i took an emperor out that was about 8" because he wasn't looking so great anymore....so i got a new guy....about the algee growth....happened when i started using red sea salt and also i put some RowaPhos which is supposed to get rid of algee and i think flared up the problem....algee has gone down since i took it out
