Got a new buddy a few days ago. They are now breeding maculosus angelfish. They breed them in large ponds then raise the larva in tanks. Making them super hardy and already aclimated to aquarium life. Hes only about 2 inches but full of personality. I cant wait to watch him change into his adult colors.  _________ 15 Gallon Nano, Current USA 80 watt PC Light, Pengiun HOB Refug, Pair of clowns one ocellaris and one purcula!

They are cool fish, but I hope it doesnt grow up to your corals like its wild cousins. _________ Got Questions? Need Answers?
