Pics of my new angelfish

[NC2WA]

Purchased this 3.5 inch sub-adult Passer (aka King) angelfish from an online vendor.

Second day in QT and is already eating Rod's Food. Plan on starting a 5-7 day PraziPro treatment tomorrow. It will be in QT for 4 wks.

..and yes people I have pics this time !!!

with all those Purtifull fish in there who needs corals

really..most of my corals are out of my DT and I'm OK with that.

I hope you name that King Angelfish "Elvis", as he is the one and only KING. A very beautiful fish to add to your collection. Which ones are you missing to complete the royalty?

 

[NC2WA]

the Queen and the Emperor...next on the list..

 

[Faciosity]

Very pretty! I love angelfish, but couldn't sacrifice my coral for fish. I'm lucky enough to have a big coral beauty and a huge flame angel that don't touch anything.

Beautiful!!! Looks very healthy...always good quality stock from Live Aquaria

 

[NC2WA]

Beautiful fish Kirk.

I had one once along time ago. Mine got ornery and killed a similarly sized undulated trigger. Be careful, Passer's can get MEAN.

Nick,

I was aware they can get mean which is why I'm getting all my large angels the same size (3-5 Inches).
Hopefully this will curb some aggression.


My goal is to have 6 large angels

 

[Maxx]

I know you are a knowledgable and experianced hobbyist who takes excellent care of his critters.
My experiance with the Passer that I kept many years ago was an eye opener (no pun intended) and caused me to rethink having one ever again.

What are the 6 large angels you've picked out?

Nick

Yes, Passers are as nasty as they are beautiful, SAWEEEEEEET!

I once caught a juvenile Queen Angelfish, but put it in my friends tank because I already had a juvenile French Anglefish and didn't want to mix the two. Angelfish IMO, are very personal fish. My French started eating out of my hand less than a week after getting him and this was a fish caught in the wild. I've had a Frenchie in a tank of mine about 3 different times in all different sizes as juveniles. I wish I had a picture of the Queen I caught, but here are two of the French's I caught.

This first one I caught, took his picture and released him.






And then you know this picture is old. I have sand in there!! :lol: This was the one that ate out of my hand. His best friend was that green wrasse you see next to him.

Nick,

Blueface (currently in the DT)
Majestic (currently in the DT)
Passer (currently in the QT)
Regal (would perfer a Red Sea (but whoa they are expensive now), but Maldives or Vanutau will do)
Emperor
Queen

I spoke to Bob Fenner about my plan to having multiple large angels and he said it CAN be done, he said make sure you have at least 5 so that territories cant be estabilshed which should reduce aggression.

We will see how this goes....

so far the majestic and blueface are getting along, no issues <knock on wood>.
