My little Regal

Here's a video of probably my best LFS find ever. This little guy is maybe 1.25" that's a 1.5" PVC fitting for reference.

Was going to do the same thing but changed my mind when I thought of my zoas disappearing

I keep primarily zoas/sps in my tank. I had my last regal for almost two years before it took a interest in SPS. IMO the smallest Angels u can find are your best bet for reef safeness. And if they go rouge that's what traps are for!

I agree with you but my tanks a 60 cube so although a small one would work for quite awhile since they're not fast growers the high density of corals I think would just be a buffet for the lil guy

Soooooo. I have this guy about a few weeks in a acclimation box in the DT. It's eating well, but just not ferociously. Reminds me of a kid building a mash potato fort.
I'm concerned about turning him loose in the DT, not because of aggression but because of feeding time in there looks like a chummed frenzy.
Will he get enough to eat? Can he sustain himself by supplementing with what he picks off the rocks?
I'm puzzled....

I have a small one also he has been in qt for little over a month now I want to put him in my main DT but I'm not sure because of all the other angels in there now. Going to pick up a critter box tomorrow to make an acc box for him to hang out in there for a week to see how the others react. My emp Angel i had from around the same size don't bother any of my lps but he is a bully.
