Added a flame angel. Lamarcks angel. Black storms. Purple tang to my collection

 

[Dazz07]

dam that is nice!

 

[JG Beeslaar]

Black storm clowns?

 

[Dexter]

Love that Lamarck angel....they just get prittier the bigger they get. I have a pair....or should i say i have two....been trying to get them to pair for the last two or three years....lol

 

[Gav1]

@JG yes black storm clowns.
@Dexter they are beautiful mine is like 4to5cm for now. How long does it take to grow?

 

[JG Beeslaar]

Amazing

@Dexter they are beautiful mine is like 4to5cm for now. How long does it take to grow?

They actually a bit boring when so small. They get much nicer when they grow bigger. I've had 4. My first pair (Wich actually started to pair) grew fast. Like very fast.
Then i had a velvet outbreak from not qt a fish.
Then i replaced them. The ones i have now. The one grew quick and his streamer tail is almost fully development. His partner i added about a year after him is a bit stagnent. His growing but not as quickly. So i think it depends on the fish and the cercomstances. So out of the 4 i had (3 grew fairly quickly, one a bit slower) But i have a cispition if you have two one grows quicker than the other because it wants to be dominant and change sex.

Just a side note.....they grow BIG.....lol Ive seen adult ones thats fully grown out. They get big....very big. Some time ago petstop had a pair in their coral bank that was actually spawning

 

[Gav1]

I hope this one doesn't grow to quickly for now got him in 100l tank

 

[Dexter]

They awsome little angels...would have been a win if they stayed that small. I have another wattanabei angel wich i think was stunned when they caught them. Ive had him for 3years now and he hasn't grown by a mm. Is still exactly the same size.

 

[Gav1]

Do you have a picture of that angel?are they reef safe

 

[Dexter]

I dont have one with me....will take one this evening. yes they are same family as the lamarck....genichanthus
But they difficult to get. Dont really see them in shops. I saw mine on a post on one of the Durban garage shops. Nobody knew what it was so it just stayed at the shop untill i bought it
