Be prepared for quick growth, easily tamed and a fish with a lot of character. Important to try and give a varied diet and reap the rewards of having a strong fish, disease resistant and visually happy.

Blue Faced Angel usually wins. I had the Koran which is slightly larger but the Koran was the most persistent and belligerent one.

I love my gorgeous flame angel, and have had her for over 10 years - no kidding! She was the second fish I ever got in my first reef tank, and she's been in three different systems over the years. Aside from coming home with ich and a successful treatment, she's never had anything since. She's been a model citizen, never eating any of my many types of corals, harassing fish or shrimp. I keep thinking she will die someday, but hasn't yet. Very enjoyable fish, constantly out swimming and darting through everything in the tank.

Can anyone tell me exactly HOW MUCH/ often they are feeding their California Ray? We had a Cortez Ray several years ago and just brought home a California Ray yesterday and I can't remember how much we fed. It is HIGHLY active and already ate a medium silverside cut in half and a small chunk of squid from my hand after acclimating. It has zero interest in clams. It is almost incessantly hunting and I'm trying to ensure the proper balance of food quantity and water condition, as I do not want to cause a nitrate spike by over feeding it.

The Blue-faced Angel is a fascinating specimen. Purchased about 6', housed in 160gal, for now; lots of live rock--because he is shy, and loves to hide. He picks up on movements from 10 feet away, and dashes back into the rocks. I was concerned at first as it took him about 2 weeks to start coming out to eat. I had to use a tube and shoot the food in his rock area at first. Even then if I shot too much pressure he would run. No worries. This guy is a VEROCIOUS eater! Just a few smaller fish, along with a 4' Desjardini makes for a harmonious community. Not sure will add much more as the LOAD will match his appetite for sure:-}!!!! Just a wonderful fish!

It is strange why the yellow three spot angelfish is described as difficult. Mine is eating Hikari Marine pellets, Ocean Nutrition pellets and Spectrum pellets. It was looking very healthy and eating in the shop before I decided to get it. Perhaps it is best to check if any intended fish is eating in the shop first before considering.

I have a 65 gallon salt water aquarium I had a snowflake eel and one night he jumped out of the tank and I found him dead the next day. That weekend I purchased a new moray eel which I need help identifying. He is about 12-15 inches long at the present time, he has a chocolate brown head and his body is beige color with horizontal brown stripes running from his backbone to his belly. He regularly eats silver-sides I don't know what his species is can you help me please

I caught one in Barnegat Inlet while Seining for bait two summers ago. He was reluctant to eat at first but now east frozen krill twice a day from tweezers. He is quite tame. When he feels the vibrations of my footsteps by the tank, a 55 gal, he comes to the corner nearest me and will not leave until I feed him. He made short work of the hermit crabes I had in the tank

My fish has developed a bacterial infection after 2 years of perfect health. I had introduced another fish to the tank and he must have had the bacteria. I treated with Metafix and the Burrfish seems to be getting better. Anyone have any experience with this situation?
