koran angel?

[kevinohio]

I am thinking of getting a juvinile Koran angel, 4" or so.
I have read about them, and they seem pretty hardy.
I am looking to see if this is the case.
Any input? anyone have one?

All my water parameters are good, but nitrates. My nitrates are usually 20 to 25 or so. They have gone as high as 40. But i increased water changes to combat this.
Let me know your thoughts on this fish. They are beautiful, but want to see if its a good choice.

Will get way too big for a 75g tank. Stick with a smaller angel. Pay attention to the adult size and buy accordingly. Marine fish tend to grow quickly.

Way to big for a 75, and is it already 4" in size it wouldnt be that much longer before it reaches full size.

Good advice - if unsure a good rule of thumb is to take a look at sites such as liveaquaira.com ........... what ever they state as "min aquarium size" for angels and butterflies double it and then you are close to its minimum requirements.

Really, a 75 gal tank is no where near big enough for a 4" Koran.....

Sorry to be so negative.......
