What dwarf angels could i put in a 43 gallon tank.

[Richard K]

Forgot to say, i already have 2 of the things on that list, mysis and brine shrimp.

Where would I go about finding sponges?

Does not require sponge which is a necessity for full size angels such as emperor, poma, majestic and such type angels.

@vetteguy53081 whats the biggest flame youve seen? My LFS had one a while back that I swear to god was like 5 inches. Was a honker!!!!

4" and even when i ordered an xl for customers at my LFS- I got a 3"

At some point I want to get a tank big enough for Emperor angel, what's the minimum tank size?

Huh that one must have been an anomaly! LFS said thats usually their size. They dont get any more flames in the store, neither does my other LFS

Now I do know those guys get like 15 or so inches, vetteguy would know the tank size. All I know is its was bigger than my 125 and not a fish I can put in my tank!

 

[Richard K]

Yeah I know the tanks are huge and so are they.

Theyre scarce as Hawaii ban had impact on supply. There are some out there but pricey. Im signing off as we are boarding a cruise ship early morning tomorrow but understand they have great internet service with star Link

Emperor, typically 8-10” captive size and no less than 300g tank in the future

200 gallons, and be prepared to kiss a random assortment of corals goodbye...

They wont have problems with being territorial if added last right? And I've also read that depending on the flame, they may or may not nip at corals? May be open to a coral beauty.

I went with a coral beauty in my 32 Gallon And I’ve had no issues with coral nipping or aggression. I understand from others experience that it does not hold true for all. The Sam can be said for flames, Pygmy’s and others.

Pick the dwarf you want, but be prepared to react if the fish you select turns out to be a bad actor.
