    Thumbs up. True, we came here to share n help one another. Anyway, any updates of livestock? Been looking for blue stripe clowns. Anyone seen it?

    Well, I have not been looking around much cause my tank is full or most say overstocked, but I do recall seeing sexy shrimps, hawkfish and harlequin shrimps in the east.

    I am looking around for a healthy female potters to try to hook it up with my XL male potters, if found would probably have to let go of my powder blue...

  4. Can anyone enlighten me how ? Coz my parent just bought the wrong type of fish :eyeblur:

    Can i just add salt into a empty tank then then put the saltwater fish inside ?And how much salt needed for a 50+ litter tank ?then after a few week then i put live rock & sand in the tank ? Can i feed them frozen bloodworm n normal flake fish food ?

    Think you better tell the reefers where you live, and we try to see if anyone stays nearby, let you put the fish in our tanks temporarily if possible.....

  6. for all the common angels feeding then dying without reason,

    the main problem usually lies with flukes.

    fluke infestation is common but easy to cure.

    freshwater dip removes all adults on the body. a little flukes is fine but most wild caught dwarf angels are riddled with flukes.

    flame and lemonpeels are prime suspects.

    try it the next time you buy a wild caught flame angel. dip it in freshwater for a few minutes. you'll be surprised what you find dropping off it's body.

    Thanks lemon. Much appreciate your advice, those angelfishes I bought had been quarantined except for the multicolor. At CF they do treat the fishes before selling right? The multibar was gotten from there, but when I introduced the cleaner shrimp. The multibar immediately went up to the cleaner shrimps and had a long cleaning session even opening up the gills to be cleaned. Could the cleaner shrimps be cleaning off flukes?

  7. Yes, alot of reading needed for this type of angels.

    Tried

    1) Venustus - like the color very much, indeed a difficult one to get it to feed. Try all sorts of food, NLS, frozen, fresh, Ocean Nitrition, etc . At the end, still died of hungry I think. Do not know what is the real reason, no white poo, no white spot or rot, no attack from other fishes , etc.

    2) Multibar - same as Venustus case.

    Now decided not try these fish at the moment until I can find a good and healhly one in the LSF.....

    But the Payoff is very satisfying! Take a look at feeding time which just took place.

  8. Since Digiman bring out the surival rate of the fish, it will be good to share the surival rate of these fish.

    1. Half moon angel or purple mask angel

    2. Multi-bar angel

    3. Potter angel

    4. Golden Angel

    5. Singapore Angel

    6. regal Angel

    7. colini Angel

    I tried 4 of these.

    1) Venustus (failed)

    2) Multibar (first attempt and still surviving but trying to get it on pellets instead of just mysis, about 2 months with me)

    3) Potter (first attempt and feeding hungrily on everything, about 3 weeks in tank)

    4) Golden Angel (first attempt but no longer with me feeding hungrily on everything, I have a small log on how I tried to get it eating)

    I don't have room in tank to try anymore and in the meantime I don't want to go through all the effort to try again these difficult angels.

    I would love to try the venustus again but afraid I will fail once more, don't like seeing fishes die in my tank.

    Take note there is alot of preparation and reading done before I purchased any, and I guess I had also been lucky as they all seem to be doing quite well.

    This final time when I upgraded my tank, I had planned the schedule of all my angelfish purchases.

  9. That's a terrible typo i made. I meant add the fiercest last and not first. Thks for correcting.

    Yes size matters a lot in fact. It is smart of u to add in a small multicolor and a big multibar, smaller also means less fierce. If it's the reverse the multicolor will kill the multibar. Adding a few dwarfs simultaneously also help to divert aggression.

    That said i still feel multibar is an extremely difficult angel to succeed unless it is the only dwarf angel in the tank with the most peaceful and stable environment. Even that the survival chance is low. Not worth keeping a tank with only multibar as the only dwarf.

    Actually I bought what I could find, so maybe it's not smart, rather it's lucky. But the final introduction of potters and flame together I did read up, that it helps divert attention. And I did choose the smallest flame as I know flame can be very hardy and aggressive.

    All these angels are my first time keeping except for the flame angel. The multibar at the moment seems the most stable of the lot, hopefully it remains this way. The feeding regime for the multibar is feed two days, stop one day for frozen mysis. Trying to get it to eat pellets....

  10. For me dwarf angels tend to bicker and fight in a smaller 3ft tank.

    Avoid too many dwarf in one small tank and add in fiercest one first.

    I used to keep flame, multicolor, golden and venustus in one same tank, 3ft.

    The multicolor killed the golden and venustus. Super fierce. Only the flame which is almost as fierce can live in harmony w it.

    Does the size matter? My angel size from biggest to smallest is potters, multibar, multicolour, flame. The introduction from first to last is multibar, multicolour and flame with potters together. The multibar is the calmest, it ignores all other fishes and all others ignore it. Once in awhile it will "fray" it's fins.

  11. I currently keep the below, all feeding and doing quite ok but multibar still only on frozen Mysis.

    1) Multibar Angelfish, most elegant of the lot, swims confidently and slowly ignoring everyone else

    2) Multicolor Angelfish, likes to cheong alot and occasionally chases after the flame angel

    3) Potter's Angelfish (male), the biggest in the tank, but quite peaceful, eats the most

    4) Flame Angelfish, very small specimen, during first 2 days chased my Multicolor around but now trend has reversed

    All feeding greedily on NLS pellets except Multibar, wonder when I can wean it off frozen mysis and onto pellets.
