Why must be from Africa? If u are looking for beginner fishes den try bali or philippines shipments, they are cheaper. African fishes are more expensive.

There are west africa shipment and east africa shipment, and many varieties of fishes.

u need to be more specific in the type of fishes u wan like angels, or wrasses, or butterfly etc. Cos most of them from Africa are not difficult.

Thanks to lemonlemon and digiman. Actually, I've quite a number of fishes from indon and Hawaii shipment so would like to try 1 from Africa if it's not too expensive. I've google the recommended fish by lemonlemon. Looks nice on the photo. I'll see the price. If it's beyond my means... I'll definitely buy it. Thanks again.

Africa indigenous Flame back Angelfish. Ditch your damsels.... unless they are exotic ones.

Very nice recommendation and wanted to buy the flameback but aunty say better don't cause I have damsel. Same size so might attack the flameback. Anyway didn't see the Midas n clownfish. Are these 2 more expensive than flameback? Thanks.

Midas blenny and allardi clown are cheaper than the flameback if i'm not wrong.

There are a lot of allardi clowns, midas blenny got a few. Dun think they are all sold, ask auntie the next time u are there. Ask her if still hav midas blenny and african clowns.

Thanks again to Digiman and Iskay for the advices. As for my damsels, I've donated a lot to my uncle. Hehe. Left only 2 pieces that I quite like. Not sure if it's exotic. Probably not cause it's cheap. It's the type where the top and bottom of the body is yellow and the main part are blue. Always like to spread it's top fin. Also it's very very hardy. Just came back from 10days holidays and the food timer finished Still survive.

As for the Midas recommended by Digiman, I'll definitely give it a shot the next time it comes. Thanks.
