Sad day...
Well.. we were warned that our favorite fish might not quite get along with the corals.. and the warning is true. Amy and I must part with our Potters Angel. We have had this guy for over 2 years (considering most books and websites say the average time they thrive in captive environments is a few weeks - this is a pretty special fish!).
The picture does not do him justice.. bright orange and very deep blues!  If anyone lives near Central Ohio and is interested - we are open to trades  Current Aquarium(s) Description: 46 Bowfront - Reef; 29 - Fish Only Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 5 years Other Intrests: Sailing, Percussion and Photography

Re: Sad day...
Sorry to hear about your impending parting. Maybe you could set up a second fish only tank for him and some other destructive buddies

Re: Sad day...
Sorry to hear it. That angles is a very nice looking fish, and two years is a long time.

Re: Sad day...
Well.. we are planning on setting up a 29 gallon FO tank later on. We have the tank and lights.. but.. there are lizards in the tank as we speak.. so.. can't move the Angel over there yet.

Re: Sad day...
I am sorry to read that Adrastos. Having to get rid of a fish for the good of the tank blows. I hope you can find a home for it. I couldn't with the trigger I had to get rid of.
If I may ask; I have a fire angel, is it ok with coral? They look very much a like shape wise. Current Aquarium(s) Description: 46g bow front Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 4 years FO, New to reef Other Intrests: lots :)

Re: Sad day...
Someone correct me if I am wrong.. but.. I believe most Angels are not good with corals. Flame angels are omnivores (both plant and meat).. with corals I believe you should gear yourself towards an herbivore only.
