Xanthurus Cream Angelfish

[RayAllen]

Im working on a stock list for my 210g. Does anyone keep the Xanthrus Cream Angelfish fish or have kept this fish in the past. Its not as colorful as some but i like its look. Anyone have any thoughts on this fish about hardiness, food etc..... Im also intersted in the Annularis Angelfish.

I've never had one. They are coral and clam eaters though, are you planning a reef or FO?

FOWLR with a few softies maybe. Most of the fish I want are definate SPS eaters and a most usually stay away from softies. So im going to stick with cheaper shrooms/zoas/palys and if they take a bite oh well

I have always wanted an Annularis until I saw an adult one. They look awesome here...

But as they get older the brilliance dulls down and they become more of a brownish/tannish color instead of the yellow...but if you plan on getting a CREAM colored angel, might as well start with a juvenile Annularis and watch it go through the changes.....That would be sweet.

personally I like the blue face...those are cool, and you don't see too many folks running around with them...

The blue face is a beautiful fish. Dont plan on getting a larger tank though than a 210g for a while and on there it says 300g min. Must get big!
