Dwarf Angel? ... Name?

Not sure anyone answered this for you ... Centropyge joculator, the Cocos Island angelfish. Not common, apparently - and a long, long way from "affordable" . . .

~Bruce, who has never seen one with his own eyes . . . but is glad to see that "Mr. Cutie" showed up before his momma _really_ started to panic!

Ok. Since I was daft this morning, here are some other pygmies I've liked. The above isn't a joculator, for the life of me I can't remember his name, BUT[emoji115] here are a few more I've liked.

This last one is a true joculator.

I've kept pygmies in reef setups before and never had a problem. I'm not saying they haven't had issues with nipping, I've just never had any myself. It's kind of like sixlines, 15 years ago I never had issues with them being aggressive. I had three at one point. But now, this joker I've got in the tank is a complete punk.

And he's so tiny! I love it!

AND he's from Vanuatu, I just love that name, Vanuatu.

I'd keep some rather foul tasting corals if you plan on getting him.
