Best dwarf angels

[Waterislife]

I want one bad but I don't think it's bold enough to compete with my stocking. Great looking little angel imo

Enless you have a predictor tank, keep mine with anything, large tangs, large angel etc. Tough little fish. Not wimps by any means.

I just had to remove a bully Bi-color angel. He picked on everyone. Now that he's gone, everyone is more active.

This is his handiwork.

Nasty

I dont think the bigger fish would be a problem even the emporer. The real war in my tank is 2ft down between a yellowtail damsel, percula clown, orchid dottyback, and a real jerk of an electric blue damsel I wish I could catch. I might just try it and see how it goes

LOL, there he is!!

Hi Jason,

The bully Bi-Color Angel aka Wendall. Has been tamed in my tank with the Picasso Trigger , Dogface Puffer and Sailfin Tang. They all get along well and eat like four pigs....lol

I’m setting up a 32 gallon and would love a Pygmy angel (cherub, flameback, etc). Do you guys think this would be possible? Other tank mates would just be a pair of clowns, firefish, and maybe a Pygmy hawkfish or yellow watchman goby

I've got two clowns, a mimic tang still small and a flame angel in a 40 for now all get along great. The mimic is going into the 180 as soon as it gets big enough to stand up to the rabbit fish in there now.

I have a 300 gal tank & added corals that follow suggestions in this video:

Austin Lefevre: Keeping Benthic Feeders with Coral: Angelfishes, Butterflyfishes, etc. | MACNA 2017

Alright guys, it's Monday and we have another MACNA 2017 speaker video for you! Here is the second speech from Austin Lefevre about keeping possible coral nippers in your reef tank. :-)

I love angels & butterfly fish. No nipping. But even if I did have nipping I enjoy these fish so much I would be okay with it.

So glad it worked out. The puffer and trigger can fight back. My lion was a baby!!

Yep damsels can be a problem that's for sure if I had to guess it's more of a territory problem than an aggression issue

 

[tigre44]

They all get along fine with each other and the other fish?

Yes a little chasing but nothing serious, I also have 2 percula clowns and 2 yellow tail damsels

I’ve always been a fan of the interruptus angle. They seem to look better with age which is a nice plus. IMO they’re the prettiest dwarf angle available. However they require cooler water than most systems are kept at.

How much cooler does the water need to be at? I wanted to get that one however if the water needs to be cooler, I might have to pass because there’s some other non dwarf angels that absolutely want.

 

[Boston reefer]

I kept one in a 77-79 degree tank for a couple years. However, I believe the recommended temp for them is like 68-77 or something along those lines. I got rid of mine because it was a coral eater, not just a nipper lol.

I had a Potters angel before. That was a fantastic fish that didn't bully other fish or nip at corals.

I want to get other dwarfs, some angels, tangs, wrasse and anthias. So I’m guessing that I won’t be getting an Interuptus anymore.

Hello everyone.
I’m in the middle of figuring out all the different fish that I would like for 205 gallon display tank. I’ve been following people’s great comments on the regular size angels and I thought I would do one for dwarf angels in the hope of getting insight on people’s experience with the dwarf angels. I don’t have any fish in my tank yet. I’m trying to figure out all my fish while I set up the tank. It’s going to be a fish only tank. Any positive feed back would truly be appreciated

I have a 180 gallon fish only tank, with a Flame, Lemon Peel, Coral Beauty, Flame Back, Multicolor and Bicolor. All were introduced at the same time with the exception of the Coral Beauty. They have been together for over a year now and get along with occasional bickering (nothing serious - I believe they challenge/reinforce the pecking order from time to time). Incredibly beautiful fish and some of my favorites in the tank. They are very active, great eaters and out all the time.

What kind of lion is this?
