Show me your Gold Flake Angel!

[benihana]

Who has one, what corals (if any) have they picked on, and how long have you had it?

Last, but not least, SHOW IT OFF!!

 

[roktsintst]

I've got one and I love it!

I have it in an SPS Tank and I never see it touching them. Mine is a vigorous eater but a tad bossy. I have had it for over a year now.

Oh, and the picture is in my Avatar!

 

[benihana]

AWESOME! Mine should be here on Jan 8th, so I am SUPER excited. Do you use anything specific for food or supplements?

 

[roktsintst]

Here are a few pictures...

 

[ROBONE20]

Wow...that's nice!

 

[flameangel88]

Sorry, wrong thread.

 

[benihana]

Very nice pics....mine will be here next Friday, I am VERY excited


Do you feed it any special diet?

 

[roktsintst]

Nothing special.

I feed flake and NLS Pellets as many times per day as i can.

I also feed a strip of Nori a day.

And probably every 2 of 3 days I feed Spirulina Brine, Hikari Mysis, and Emerald Entre soaed in garlic, selcon, and vita chem!!!

I just got mine in this morning! After a little accilmation to my tank water, he is in the acclimation box and eating frozen like a PIG!

 

[stunreefer]

Very nice looking fish, congrats!

You should probably reconsider adding him directly to your DT though. I would run Prazi and Cupramine once eating well for you.

 

[benihana]

THanks. I know about adding him directly to my DT, but I do not have a QT (yet), and I did take about 2 hours of acclimation outside of my tank before I put him in there

What are Prazi and Cupramine?

 

[stunreefer]

Prazipro is a treatment for flukes and internal parasites by Hikari http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=12098 and Cupramine is a Copper product by Seachem http://www.seachem.com/Products/product_pages/Cupramine.html.

[benihana]

thanks for the links....I will definately do some reading....I appriciate it

 

[Ev's Reef]

What size of a tank do you guys think would be best for this fish, because I might be intrested to get one of these.

 

[roktsintst]

That one looks great man, But Im definitly w/ Stun. You really need to QT, and especially a harder to keep angel like this one...
