The Angel Lovers Thread

[spiffynidd]

Can I get advice? I want a dwarf angel, something colorful and chill. I have a 72gal bowfront, with a fistfull of mollies, a rabbitfish, and a red cardinal fish. I'm torn between a Bicolor, an Eibli, or a coral beauty. I'm not super concerned with corals, if they get et they get et. The tank has a good amount of live rock, and I will be adding more with the new fish.

I think one of the most beautiful fish in the ocean, hands down, is the Bicolor Angel. That being said, it is about the only fish I have consistently 'not' had success with-- although granted, I don't think I was quarantining my own fish back at the time. Some people said it has to do with collection methods, but I'm not so sure. Anyway, given I struck out three times, the Eibli might be a safer bet.

I really like the bold look of the bicolor, and my lfs just got one traded in that is fat and the perfect size. The only downside is he's a confirmed zoa nipper. I think if he's still at the store when I go this weekend, he's coming home with me. If not, I'll put in an order for the eibli.

Looks like it was meant to be, Mr Muncher the bicolor angel is still at the lfs and now he's got my name on him. I am so excited! I showed my husband a batch of angels and that was the one we both liked.

The tank is a bit greener than I'd prefer but I wanted to make sure there was enough algae on the rocks. The lights have been adjusted, and the clean up crew is a crewing.
This is Gustopher, he is a criminal, and he knows what he's done. So far his crimes include squatting and excessive cuteness, as well as a confirmed zoa muncher.
