Beautiful fish, not sure how he would get along with my Flame? What size tank is he in?

[Kristy]

They really are stunning. I saw one in a LFS in Denver last week and that was the first time I'd ever seen one in person. I must have stood there 10 minutes looking at it.

He's currently in a 45 cube and eats EVERYTHING (Mysis, Brine, Shrimp, Algae clips, Flake foods, etc) I feed my the tank. I've collected golden angelfish for many years and they are very hardy in aquariums. I'd personally keep them in in smaller aquariums as they are very timid by nature and rarely like to come out into the open when people are present. They are a deep water species that usually take a little acclimating to bright lighting when first purchasing from a LFS. When I first purchased this little guy he didn't come out of my rockwork for about 2 weeks. Now he swims pretty freely through the tank until he notices me walking towards the tank and swims back to his little cave. I usually just pull up a chair and he'll come back out in about 3-5 minutes. I also don't know if this guy is a little crazy but I tend to leave my algae cleaner in my tank periodically and he'll swim laps around it repetitively on occassions.

The only reason I'm selling him is because I'm setting up a 150 in the next few months and I'm planning on getting a mated pair for that tank. The Golden Angelfish is my favorite of the centropyge and the glow from their rear fins is really mesmerizing. The best comparison would probably be the purple rear fins on a juvenile chevron tang.

Hi, beautiful fish! How is he with corals and will you be available tomorrow for pick up?

[Goofball310]

The fish is currently pending to Big_Pun as he contacted me first about purchasing/trading for it. If he falls threw I will contact the next person that contacted me but much to my surprise the interest in the fish has grown more than I had expected.

Jolly,

The fish has been really fine with my corals but did nip at a wellsophyllia that was dying. He'll also occassionally nip at my zoo's in curiosity but never does any damage as the zoo's will usually open back up in a few minutes.

[Big_Pun]

I can pick up tomorrow
