bros,

last sat i drove all the way down from Pasir Ris to LCK to buy flame angel.

I was really very happy.

I chose 2 fat active looking Flame angel and pair them together to see if they fought.

After 10mins, they did not fight so i considered them as one male one female.

They have since paired up in my tank.

I am so happy to make this purchase. Good deal and good fat healthy specimen.

Plus i bought an active yellow tang.

Pity the place is so far far away ....

Hi bro,

Care to share how to differential male and female?

Hi bro,

Care to share how to differential male and female?

I think he just select 2 fishes, put them together for 10 mins and see if they fight.

If they do not, then he assumes that they are of different genders.

right Tivoli?

So they are still peaceful in your tank now?

Hi bro,

Care to share how to differential male and female?

I was told the female has less and thick line and male has more lines if you do a comparison. Most female will have 4 - 5 lines. Heard they do change sex too. Not sure how true is this.

small sized regal angels spotted?

Hi bro,

Care to share how to differential male and female?

very difficult to differentiate between males and females for centropyges. most do not have any different patterns to distinguish. even if they do, very subtle and most likely not the least bit helpful.

the best way to pair up any dwarf angel is to get 1 big and 1 small 1. sexing males tend to be larger. all of them start out as females in the wild, and as they grow larger, pecking order etc, will morph to males. so as a rule of thumb most large specimens are males.

hope that helps.

If you're looking for yellow belly regal, those are not.

Erhm actually huh.. how I paired my flames (besides one larger and one smaller) was also to look at the end (or tip) of the fins just beside the tails. Female is rounded, male is pointed (but the thing is, sometimes its very very hard to differentiate)

Frankly, flame angels are not as bad as lemon peel angel which have the notorious record of nipping at corals even if you start them young.

[Morpheous]

lots of asfur and purple tang at ah beng

[matt0005]

@stevenkoh: yes sir

[tivoli]

Yes . Thats right.

They can change gender over a few months.

Same gender together, they will surely fight esp males.

Males are usually bigger and fatter.

I think he just select 2 fishes, put them together for 10 mins and see if they fight.

If they do not, then he assumes that they are of different genders.
