without much digging here is a good picture of my Koran.

And a really sweet shot of my queen when I had it

Here you see my angel lurking with the Brain coral at the bottom.

How recent are the Koran pix.... has it grown since they were taken?

Did you grow the Queen out from juvi?

Re: large angels in a reef

the koran pic was taken probably 3-4 mos ago i think. I bought the queen as a fully changed adult.

The problem I had with the emperor is that is would pick at sps, More at the bases. This fish knew I didn't want it to. When I'd come by the tank it would start whistling and had a guilty look on it's face. It didn't decimate any particular coral it just pestered them and in the long-term the corals suffered for it. I sold the fish as much as I loved it, I felt it was incompatible with many of corals that I wanted to keep.

I give tremendous kudos to Gary for being successful with this fish. I was over one day and the angel sucked on the carpet anemones tentacles, I couldn't believe it. That anemone stings and eats fish like crazy yet the emp chews on it.... I guess it's an emperor for a reason... It get's its way, it's the boss.

that would be quite a sight to see a emperor chomping on a nem like that!

here is a really poor pic taken with my old point and shoot of my queen and koran in the the same shot so you get a size comparison.
