Still can’t understand why everyone picking the scribble that’s one of my fav angel.

I think because of how she looks now. If she does go male, she'll be the hottest thing in there.

She looks hot to me just the way she is(the scribble I’m talking about ‍)

Don't worry, he's secretly on my cut all other fish first before him list. [emoji106][emoji106]

I'd say emperor or majestic. Love the scribbled and regal! Toss the nasi before the scribbled! Has it picked on any corals?

Oh no! Not my naso! He has streamers!

Even before my emperor goes full adult colors?

I love when they have juice colors like yours but transitioning colors I'm not a fan of personally. Adults are cool but pretty commonly available. And get huge. Sorry have just never been a big fan of nasos but streamer status is nice

How big is the tank? Flames add so much color... when I upgrade from my 150gal I'm going for a trio

I like your straight talk. My last emperor was 7-8" and thicker than a T-bone steak. They just have so much personality though!

I know... Both the emperor and naso will eventually need to be rehomed. Good thing I know a guy with a 1700 gallon tank!

215-gallon... I'd say skip the trio... I bought a pair and the female ended up going male. Same thing will happen eventually with the trio is my guess, but I'm no wrasse expert.

The emperor will get nasty as it gets bigger. I had to rehome mine.

My was getting a bit more temperamental at the 7-8" range. Tough decisions!

Wait until the emperor's pattern starts to change, then get rid of him, if only they kept the juvie color.

I've been through that change once before with a previous emperor... it was amazing to witness. Though yes... Too bad they don't stay that way forever! Plus he'll grow into a monster! He's my longer term rehome!

For now, which one would you boot eat breakfast?

For now? That's tough. You have some of my favorite angel species. The flame or emperor/majestic. Emperor and majestic have the same shape. It's a tough call.

Thanks Eatbreakfast... That's why I had to reach out to other reefers for help, I don't want to cut any of them!

While I got a fish expert on the line, any cool angel you'd replace it with... Something not blue/yellow and plays nice with others? Have a mainly acro tank so not too worried about picking/eating fleshy corals. I'm partial to not common ones but I don't need to spend thousands either. [emoji4]
