Default Swallowtail Angel
Has anyone here ever had a pair of these fish?

I was just browsing through my species book and went thru angels, realising that these beautiful fish are reef safe.

Thoughts anyone? Are they hardy, aggressive etc..?

Thanks

Breed

Yes it is a nice fish! Thanks for the extra research material!! Cheers!!

While focussing on these reef-friendly angels, has anyone had Watanabe Angels? They look a bit different but similar shape and colour?

Thanks,

Breed
