Without your knowledge, the coral beauty could be bulyying your coral beauty and stressing it out... The coralbeauty is a pretty agressive fish and maybe the Golden was starved and when the coral beauty was introduced, it was stressed out... :(

Golden Angle generally are very shy thus it will be hidding most of the time and it also need to be train to eat normal fish food before it can be release to the main tank. As being a shy angel it will not dare to compit food with the rest. Golden angel is also one the dwarf angel is difficult to keep.

Coral Beauty on the other hand is quite bold and easier to maintain. My coral beauty is already swimming with the rest of the pack after 1.5weeks.

Yep, Rav 65 is right, golden is not an easy fish to keep. Eventhough this fish can be live with prepare food, but this fish is still a shy fish. So presume you can keep this golden but you can't hope to enjoy the beautiness of this fish, may be until the fish dead many years later. I heard a story from my lfs, he kept golden in his show tank, but he never saw the fish, he knew that the fish is not dead because he often saw the fish dasting along the crevices inside the rockwork, but he never saw the fish give a show appereance in the open area. That's why i don't interest to try my luck in keeping this expensive beauty but can't see it, it's like a waste of money. IMHO

True.

My Golden angel was hidden all the time until I intro my Coral beauty. Then the STUPID CARPET ANEMONE have it for supper. :cry2::cry2::cry2:

neokn,

Did you say carpet anemone? I think in that case you blame the wrong guy. It is not your coral beauty that killed the golden angel. Carpet anemone is one of the most fierceful invertibrate that I have ever come across. It will eat anything. Don't be surprise that your coral beauty becomes its next meal too.

If I were you, I will get rid of the carpet anemone asap.

Sold it to any reefer with 5' tank. He have a collection of the carpet anemone.

I was hoping that the next day when the anemone had it for supper.

Yeah...agree... same thing goes with those sanddrifting gobies or wrasses... only get to see them once in a while. It is ok if you only pay $5 for the stock and see it for 10minutes a day during feeding. But if you spend about $100, I think is not worth it.

Try flame angel, they are more hardy and easy to get.

Yup, agreed, the Flame is easier to keep, I got my Flame for a few months now and the fella everyday happily swimming ad eating.... One of my few successes, it's my 1st Flame angel till now... never lost on b4... unlike the Goldens, lost 4!!! Potter angel lost 2 ( 1 while in my fren's tank... )...

HUH? :shock: Did you call the police?! :lol:

Maybe I should. :unsure::unsure::unsure:

Or I "shot bird" didn't see properly.

So which is which. :unsure::unsure::unsure:

My best guess/ hope against hope that the fella still around cause my algae benny disappear too after 1 week from the day that I intro it to the tank.

juz hope when i intro the golden n flame angels, my coral beauty wun bully them.

Pretty unlikely bro, I dunno about Flame Angel, coz mine's seem pretty tame, but the coral beauty is pretty agressive and I'm sure the Golden would be bullied by it... :)

like that sianz liao. cheap fish bully expensive fish. golden angel juz came but haven't collect yet. any idea how to get the coral beauty out?

FYI: my Coral Beauty didn't bully my Elibi angel.

Coral Beauty is easy to remove from tank as they don't hide themselve. Or you may wasn to catch it when you are feeding it.

can use a beta box as a trap if you have one, just feed the fishes in the box and wait for it to enter, den "close sesame!!" :)
