Just put him in QT after acclimation and he is already eating mysis and pellets. Great looking, healthy fish I think. Here are a couple pics.

Great to hear the fish is already eating!

Hi

Hi

I was looking at trying to get one from them very soon, and about 5-7 pyramids except they never seem to have that many at once

I think he has 3 right now.

yeah, he snarfed up the mysis immediately and even a few pellets of Neptune CD.

I gave him 1/4 of a cube and he ate it all

Beautiful fish! IMO it's the best looking angelfish.

Thanks, I agree, it's my first one actually.

Kevin has been great and his prices are much lower that LA. I have bought plenty of fish from them too, but they were so much higher on this guy.

 

[sc50964]

I got one looking just like yours from Kevin. Really can't believe the colors and the contrast. It is one fish whose common name doesn't disappoint.

For sure, the electric blue outline on the fins is amazing. It's hard to see in the pics I took, but it is really sharp.

 

[mbauma]

How much and often should I feed this guy in QT?

 

[sc50964]

Feed as much as your QT can handle. Try twice a day to start and check water quality.

I have a 20L QT with a HOB filter and keep it running, so it's always cycled.

What? 20 L? 5 gallon? As the QT for a $300 fish? Are you serious?

 

[mbauma]

20 gallon, long, get a grip!

That's 20G, L. You get a grip.

Get a life and worry about your own tank.

Get a life and stop asking dumb *** question.

So.... back to the awesome fish?

Glad to hear it's eating.

To your question... honestly, unless there is a thinness issue, I feed sparingly in QT...
