How is their behaviour? Are they shy or sensitive? My LFS has a few coming in these days. Maybe I will get one..

The pair I had for two weeks before succumbing to velvet had become bold and begged for food. I would not just rush out and get one, and the point of collection is important: stick to Marshall Islands or Vanuatu. Even Kevin Kohen has difficulties getting this fish through the acclimation process. Hoping a pair can be formed from the three he got in last week.

Ok.. Sounds very tricky to me. Is it true that they are more like a coolwater fish? I've heard that they can't handle "warmer" water.
 
Thanks guys. He is awesome. I got him as a super tiny juvenile directly off the plane from the Marshall Islands. He was so adorable I couldn't help myself. Straight out of the bag into the tank... Anyway he stuck to the rockwork eating pods and such for the first few months but now he comes out and eats nori and swims with the other gigantic fish he lives with. You could almost consider him tank raised. I don't think he is really representative of what you find in the hobby normally. I was just really lucky three years ago he was so small none of the other fish noticed his arrival. That Atlantic blue tang you see in the video was the same deal. Pinky nail size so he is a perfect tank citizen....so far. :)
 
So my LFS has now a "pair" available.. They came in on friday and already eat like pigs! Still not sure it is a true pair, but they swim together. They will send me a short movie of them asap.

Im not sure if they will do fine with my majestic. Because he is the only angel in the tank and is now in the tank for 3 years.

Is 100 bucks for each a good price for you?

If they are actually eating and tolerating each other, yes I'd pay that in a heart beat.

In my opinion, I'll always pay a little bit more for a fish that's eating, especially a fish like a multi bar.
 
My LFS sold 1 multibar this weekend. Damn, they were tolerating each other! That means that I just have 1 now. But its eating very good and healthy. Is it a problem to pair them up in my tank then?
