SRC Member blacknails Posted December 10, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 10, 2003 Hey guys.. I got a Coral Beau Angel in my FOWLR tank a few days ago.. It's doing fine lately and grazing on the macroalgae in my tank.. Only problem is that whenever it spots me getting close to the tank (and not watching from a distance) it'll dart back into hiding!! It will eventually stop doing that, right? More importantly, I wanted to ask if it is an easy Angel to keep and it's ok to let it graze on any macroalgae the LFS is selling right? There are no macroalgae that the Algel will graze on that is harmful to it, right? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuEl Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 It will get used to you in time to come. All my fishes come out and meet me when it is feeding time. Even my pipefish and scooters.. Of cause it takes time for your fish to establish trust with the owner. For instance..my firegoby can take cyclops from a syringe which i hold underwater with my hand. Not much hiding from me now..

SRC Member chrislwp Posted December 11, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 11, 2003 My pair of tomato clown keep attacking my hand whenever I put my hand in, can feel the pain of it's bite ok. Didn't see any eggs lay, still so aggressive. All fish always hungry for food. Quote Tank 4x2x2.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member ozy Posted December 11, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 11, 2003 Yah, they will take a while... The golden angel I got from wedgee is now coming out now. It used to be darting back into the LR when I come near the tank, Now it is swimming around even when I am near. I was very worried that the fella is too scared to eat, but now everything is ok.
