angelfish reccomendations

[lunner]

I agree with the guys above.

genicanthus angel

I LOVE my female swallowtail angel, and wouldnt trade her for anything. she is still small (about 3") but is very polite, never pushing tankmates around, and she is also very pretty. she and my rusty angel get along quite well.

ok, maybe a genicanthus is a possibility, and dont take offense to this, but it doesnt quite have that showstopper look i am really looking for. or it could just be that the pictures dont do it justice as i have found with many fish, not just angels.

 

[rgentry123]

ok, so this is a totally differant possible direction but what do you think about adding 2 tangs and no other angels? my fish list would be cb angel, flame hawk, tomato clown, mandarin dragonet, tomini tang and a yellow tang. all in a 110 gallon tank w/about 100# of lr.

the tangs would work fine, but I think you could add a small genicanthus as well, maybe a swallowtail or even a pair of swallowtails

that male zebra angelfish is really cool

 

[rgentry123]

okay so everyone seems to think a genicanthus angel is the way to go. which one does everyone reccomend? i'm trrying to go for a real show stopper

LOL yeah.

The female bellus IS the showstopper of the genus hand down IMO, the male Watanabei is a close second.

These three little guys arrived ~ 1 inch. Sorry for the bad photo. They are too fast to be photographed with my camera and the only photo I have is from the QT when they first arrived.

They are the perfect reef fish.
