Bicolor angel luck?

Post by Brandon8521 »

Has anyone had any success with keeping bicolor angels. I know they are the more challenging dwarg angels to keep but besides the flame angels these are my favorites.

The only thing i will be wanting to keep that it may pick at is zoas. Just wanted to see if anyone has had any luck with them cause alot of info states that its more or less there grazeing habbits and how they are captured that make the difference if they survive in a hobbiest tank or not. I dont have much grazeing algea on my rocks at all. My wife loves them and she doesnt like many fish. I love their brightness aswell. I was thinking about getting a small one that way it can grow up with my puffer. Then i can explaine my reasons for wanting to upgrade to at lest an 80 gallon in a few months :D .

I don't trust any angels, unless it is from another reefer's tank & proven not to nip at corals.

Exactly PP. Another thing i would like to mention. Most info says dwarf angels do well in 30g. I believe this not to be true. I had a coral beauty in my 46g and their were times when all he did was swim from corner to corner. I don't even believe my tank was big enough for one.
