Been on the look out for one of these for some time and when dd had one it was tiny so tried to resist....... We all know how that goes :spin2:Lol
So I now have a tiny fish and would like to hear anybody else's experience with this angel, and yes I know ....... Pics are required asap

It's early days still I guess, hope it works out. The angel is about 3 -4 cm so very small. It appeared interested in the very small mysis and snagged one or two. Hasn't touched the tiny piece of fresh shrimp or macro in it's tank. So far stays in the rocks and ventures out a little every now and then. It can see other fish but nothing is in with it, not even cuc. I really hope this little guy does well. It's going to be great to get to see it change and grow over time I hope. It came in with a slightly frayed tail fin, but other than that in great shape. Fedex was early and dd did a great job packing as usual, all helped to give it a good start. I will try to get better pics right now it hides when it sees the camera. I'll post what I have so long and hear what you all think.

i see it on DD right now. that little guy is SMALL.

She ( kids decided :spin1is out and about more active today but wants more space pacing the glass and I won't be able to put her into her d tank till she is a lot bigger. There won't be any very aggressive tank mates I'm just scared she is eaten because she is tiny and looks tasy like 'sushi' all wrapped up pretty too in her juvie colours. the blue line on dd was gone when I went to look this morning, wonder who got this one?

Bluelines are one of my favorites. I have a 9" and two 3 1/2". The smaller ones were raised from 1.75" and 2.25" and have done great. Little angels need LOTS of small feedings and should have rocks/algae to be able to graze on. Try feeding any meat or veggitable matter. A couple of things that I seem to have luck with small angels is Frozen Cyclop-eeze, freshly hatched brine shrimp, chopped up small Hikari mysis and veggie flakes.

Thanks good to hear from others experiences.so far so good. I have some extra time with the long weekend being very convenient :celeb1: to make sure this baby gets babied. I'm using the tiny mysis, nori on a shell and macro in the tank. I'll try cyclops this pm. Have you ever used oyster or fish eggs? More for later as right now they would be too big. The live rock in with her is ok but not the best as I took it out of a holding tank that had been cleaned up by a file fish some time ago.
