Flame Angelfish

so in other words, shouldnt be a hard fish to find lol


i've had mine for over a year now, super fat and very active. but for being one of the smaller fish in my tank, he if def. the bully. gives every new addition a hard time, regardless if it is bigger or not. the only fish he doesnt really mess with is my maroon clownfish pair.
 
I didn't think it was going to be hard to find but I thought I would try to see if anyone had one before going to the store. I find them to be heathier if they have been in somemones tank for awhile vs. a new shipment from fish store.
 
yes- correct in thinking that- but I doubt if someone who has a healthy flame would want to sell it.
 
hybridazn, how is it with your sps?

he doesnt even look at them. doesnt bother any of my softies/zoas/palys either, my only problem with him is his attitude lol.

i've given thought to getting rid of him, but the more i think about it i just cant do it. he was my first fish other than my clowns. my new setup will be going up soon so that will hopefully calm his behind down.

as for going home grown vs. store bought you are right, but for the most part these are very hardy fish. as long as he eats at the store i think you would be more than fine with going with a store bought one
 
I think they run closer to $59-$69 at Elmers. They are generally cheaper there than Seahorse. Some stuff like purple tangs though, they charge crazy prices for. At that point I'd get them from Seahorse since they're not over $130 like at Elmers :)
 
thank you for all of the info. I live in the South Hills so I will go out to Wet Pets even though they are pricy on everything.
