Annularis Angel advice please?

[gsiegel]

Going to add an Angel to my tank. Do not need some rare angel that is $$$$ (sorry Huma). I saw an Annularis on DD and have read that they are on the hardier side. The blue lines seem very vibrant but not sue if that is just DD's photo or are they that striking?

Thoughts? Pull the trigger?

Thanks!

They are bright but require good lighting and a good diet to stay looking that nice. I'd also look at the blue line angels. Hardy and relatively peaceful, with even more electric blue markings.

IMO, annularis is such a better looking fish than a blue line angel. I have had two and loved both. They aren't as personable as an imperator though and tend to be a little more reclusive.

Thanks
Have great lighting - vegas, and feed them well and a big variety.
Good to know about the imperator - I do want some personality as well.
Any other feedback about the annularis or other suggestions?

I had one for a few years and it wasn't at all reclusive, it was greedy and spent most of it's time up in the feeding corner waiting for dinner. I have an Asfur atm and it's behaviour is much the same. The neon blue rings although gorgeous, were not as full on as the DD pic and the body colour more greenish.

Thats a beautiful fish IMO.
