Those guys are awesome Alton. No coral nipping? Are they a bonded pair? Are there little regals in our future? :)

Those are Gorgeous Alton! Very nice looking pair that you have there. Always forget how beautiful these fish can be as they are kinda hard to come by especially nicer specimens and they are kind of under rated in my opinion. If my queen doesnt behave I might have to try to track a couple regals angels.

Sadly to say but after two years they are still not paired. They have a get along most of the time but sometimes the larger one goes on a terror and chases the smaller one. But with my large tank and plenty of rock work the smaller one eludes the larger one.

As a baby in QT, when I first introduced her to the 300 and the torn fins, my larger one two years ago, and then a full tank. The last couple of weeks has really been a love hate relationship so just maybe they will pair in the next couple months? With my Pair of Flames I witnessed one spawning, and several breeding sessions. That pairing only took a few months. Oh yea on the coral nipping no problems except for brains.
