I am thinking about adding two female Bellus Angelfishes simultaneously to my 400 gallon reef tank, hoping one will change sex and that they will form a bonded pair. But will there be too much fighting between them before the sex change takes place, and is it hence inadvisable?
Adding two female Bellus Angelfish to a tank -- bad idea?
- Thread starter Agathos
- Start date
I added 2 females 3 yrs ago in my 450g DT ... Within a yr 1 turned male, but because of a Lamarck than also changed to male, the Bellus reverted back to female. Eventually I removed the Lamarck and the Bellus changed again. Kept it for another yr, then sold the Bellus male so that my swallowtail would turn to male (zebra).
Anyway...I think you should not have a problem adding 2 females at the same time in your tank.
Do you have any other Genicanthus angels?

did you end up getting the angelfish, if so how did it go?
No I didn't. They were sold to someone else. Hoping for a pair in the future, though
