WHAT, Wrong fish

[pitkat]

Ordered a Bi-colour Angle and got this :shock: sometimes you just get lucky i think

 

[estanoche]

lol nice!! So, have you IDed it yet???

 

[pitkat]

I think it's a Gold flake angle fish. Could be wrong though

 

[Peppie]

I'll trade you for what you ordered!!!! LOL

 

[hellotreetops]

Wow! Very nice.

 

[pitkat]

Err Bi-Colour $20 Gold Flake $250 I think i'll keep the little fella Besides, he looks happy lol. Nearly as happy as me

 

[Shane and John]

Wow, what a score!!

Sometimes in life things are just meant to be. Good luck with your new addition. Maybe do some research to find if he has any special dietary requirements. He is obviously not your run of the mill, common Angel. Please post your findings as I am very interested!!

That is a Flag Fin Angel, very sensitive to environment & diet. Had one that made it 9 months and died suddenly for no reason, perhaps sponge diet was lacking.

 

[pitkat]

Very similar to a Flag fin but flag fins dont have the dark fin on top like this one has. Definatly a Gold flake angel.

 

[donrando]

yup, g/f angel

what size tank you have? I will bet it nibbles at almost all of your corals

 

[pitkat]

400 Gal, Tanks only been running about 6 weeks. No corals in it yet. But you are right. It looks like i will have to watch him

That's awesome! I bet someone in the shipping packing department is getting in some trouble he he. Liveaquaria wants $399 for one right now! I hope your tank is established enough to keep him healthy.

Wow...what a mistake on their part. Good for you though. That's a beautiful fish. Do what ever you can to keep it healthy. You're sure to not get a prize fish that cheap again! And a rare one at that. REALLY hope it does well for you and lives a long time.

I heard they were really good angels for reefs....I want to get one too!

I Googled Gold Flake Angel and Flag Fin Angel and it definately looks like a Gold Flake to me. But that's just me (and Google). Beautiful little guy.
