Well guys I just picked up a nice looking tricolor at about 8pm
I done a bunch of reading on it while at work in my down time. (very slow day
And fill it should be a good angle to go with my potter.
So for know I have it in a isolation tank but not sure if I will keep him in it or not. The tank is a 24x12x12 with my kolora250 some cheato and a fluval U1 (spong filter was in 120g sump for 3 weeks socking) and of course a heater and PVC T's
If you want to advise on what you would do next please shoot me a pm. But I'll try to keep you posted sence your also wanting to group up dwarf angles.

By my own confession, I am no guru of dwarf angels - but I have been around the traps a while
My advice would be keep him in the isolation tank for a while, for two reasons:1. The usual q-tine reasons, to prevent disease spreading into your main tank.
2. Just as pertinent in this case, the little guy has been moved about quite a lot recently getting from the reef to your home. His competitors in your established tank will take advantage of him being a bit run down. Give him time to rest in your q-tine tank, get used to artificial lighting and prepared food-stuffs; once he is feeding well, is no longer terrified of you, and appears to be moving around his tank naturally, then he is ready for a boxing bout in your tank - otherwise, it could be lambs to the slaughter. This applies to any fish, especially if being into a tank where you suspect there may be trouble.
