Ryan,
It's just about 2.5" I wonder how long it'll still have it's juvenile yellow stripe. Seems like it's already fading out. Eats like a pig already. Loves Hykari Mysis and I'm going to get him on pellet/flake ASAP.

Awesome!!!
Will you treat it w/ prazi/copper?
Also, what tank is it going in and w/ what tankmates?

It will be getting prazi/copper. It is going into an SPS dominated Elos System 70 for now (I'm not one for "rules" of what is reef safe). Tankmates will be a pair of Joculators and possibly some Red Spot Cardinals (I had a bunch previously, but unfortunately lost all of them to unknown reasons).
Obviously this will not be a permanent home for these guys. I'm going to upgrade to an Elos 120xl or maybe even 160xl sometime in the next 1-1.5 years.

Nice Fish David!!
Mine is doing very well in the QT with her buddies. She is eating Flake, Mysis and Rods Veg.
I will try to get pictures up as soon as I can. Mine is very small, and the blue stripes only show up when I use flash or when she is in the right lighting. I would venture to guess that she is right at 1.5"

I will certainly keep you all updated.
Michael, I think we need to see some pictures of your little girl! 1.5" is TINY! I know there were issues with getting that fish, glad everything worked out. AAAAAND, as you said, I should pick a BL up, as it'll force me to upgrade soon! Glad I did

They get along great. I'm waiting to see what happens when the little one looses its juvi colors.

Awesome little fish guy's, they are also pretty boisterous aren't they? Of the two little one's I have the 1st introduced one seems a bit more outgoing.

Terrible Pictures But Here She Is:
She is a tiny little fish. BTW, I managed to get the blue lines to show up, normally they are very difficult to see.

Wow Michael!
Still has the nice deep yellow bar behind the eye too, for some reason the yellow seems to be fading pretty fast on mine 1 of the two I bought had deeper yellow because I think that she was smaller but even she is losing that beautiful yellow bar.

The yellow on the 2 1/4" is fading fast but the 1 7/8" is still retaining the yellow very well. I can't believe how fast the yellow faded so enjoy it and snap those pics away while it's still there.
Good news is that the smallest one is eating flakes and pellets as well now and that makes multiple feedings much easier.

I need to post the pic but I found one yesterday that is about 1" total length, It is all Black with a very bright yellow stripe and tail. They want 180 for it, but my tank is not ready for it yet. I'm sure it will be gone by the end of the month. Pic will be up thursday when I get back

And where might that be located? I promise I won't try to buy it:spin3:
I just found this thread and great pics !
is the blue line angel reef safe ? if not what corals are not compatible ? I just got n this thread so if this was covered on an earlier page I apologize. Great looking fish but I was under the impression angels were not reef safe.
Thanks

As with all angels there is always a chance. I have had a 4" blueline in my reef and it has yet to pick on any corals. That doesn't mean it won't
