When I had the bigger tank, this was one fish I was always after as well. IMO, much nicer then the dwarf angels...but I am also not a fan of most dwarf angels other than flame. I had a coral beauty once but didn't really do much for me and it was a nasty little fish once it got big.

I love bold, graphic patterns like in the adult. I wonder if Marimekko will ever put out a nice fish species :D

With all the small fish in the tank, I think you need to make sure not to add anything that may harass them.

One thing I find when looking at a tank is that if the fish are 100% peaceful, the experience is serene and relaxing...I really get lost in the tank lol. But if there is any aggression, it just completely changes the experience. My big tank had just the slightest bit of aggression (hippo hated the tusk) and it killed it for me.

A tank changes when fish start chasing each other, even if its just the slightest bit. I have seen some peoples tank that are just hard to see the beauty in because they fish won't leave each other alone. Used to drive me nuts in my own tank...watching it was always a little uneasy instead of calming.

Just my opinion though :wink:

The top is the female and the bottom the male. I think both are adults?

Oh ok. Didn't know that. I guess that makes sense since they look about the same size :lol:

Hey GSP - was this the vid/tank you were talking about? http://canreef.com/vbulletin/showthr...t=48883&page=2

That badboy is just a *little* larger than 400 gallons =) Lots of small fish though. In the first video I like how the guy sitting down almost flips the tiny couch lol.

No, the tank was not on here. I guess I will have some time this weekend to look for it though. I think it was on RC, so I will ask around there.

Sorry to bump this topic back from the dead, bu tduring my perusal of RC today, I might have stumbled upon the mythical video...
