Just picked up a Black Phantom Angelfish from Poma Labs. Will post pics once it’s settled in. They come with a cool certificate.

Beautiful size! Do you think he has maxed-out yet?

He's still small and growing quite slowly.

Gorgeous fish. Mine is a good 6 to 7 inches. Curious to see how it behaves when I add more large angels.

Latest pic of my French Angel compared to the Regal. I had to rehome the Regal to the frag tank since she was getting pummeled by the Passer.

Regal looks a little upset.

Passer is one of the meanest angels IMO. Almost as mean as an undulated trigger or purple tang.

We recently brought in these two hybrids from Bali Aquarich. I can't get over the colors on the leopyge!

I had seen photos of them before, but was absolutely awestruck when I first took this one out of the box. Those colors really do look that good.

Where did you purchase this from?

Would I be a complete fool to add a Scribbled angel to my 360 gallon reef?
I don't mind a bit of nipping here and there as I think these large colonies can take it. I've never owned a Scribbled before but have read that they would most likely not like the taste of these softies. I will watch the clam closely to be sure.
Thoughts? I think a Scribbled would look really nice in there. Also considering adding a trio of female Watanabe and hoping one transitions and I get a harem.
