Making a case as to why NOT to bring home a Regal angel
My husband bought a Regal Angel two months ago. We have left him at the LFS and he is not home yet. After losing all my large angels to a bacterial infection, which I was told is species specific, I am not comfortable with bring any angel home. However my husband built the system and he buys what he wants to buy for all his hard work. I was also told the bacteria would die off without the angels in a couple of weeks. Of course I cannot find any info that coincides with this info. I actually cannot find anything to state this.
Aside of coral nipping and the usual thing, what can I use as a case to not bring this fish home. He has lived in the LFS for two months and I believe he will survive. He is eating pellets and is healthy at this point. My husband has always wanted one and I don't like to tell him what he can and cannot bring home. He is passionate about the hobby like I am, but I am the one that takes care of everything.
Any help or opinions would be greatly appreciated at this time. He is not sure if he wants to fish either, but I just want him to be absolutely positive in his choice to either bring it home or not bring home. It's only fair to him, and myself as well as the fish.
