MiddReef Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 NR meet a project fish of mine: Meet a species I originally met diving in Hawaii last spring, the elusive Potters Angel. I call this friend Kona I have waited for years for this one, finding one that was eating was tough but he's been doing just awesome. Hard to get a photo because they're so active once they get settled. I was afraid he would hide out but hasn't been an issue. Likes : eating everything, keeping clownfish in line Dislikes : tbd Link to comment
MiddReef Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 Nice growth on this (was green) blue milli....the thing came apple green with brown polyps and has turned into a very delicate dark blue base with light blue tipped hairy colony, it's started to branch up and continue to encrust...Reefon! http://s415.photobucket.com/user/MiddReef/media/IMG_3300_zps224b4655.jpg.html'> Link to comment

famousdan314 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I'm curious how your Potter Angel does, I'm tempted to get a coral beauty or flame angel for my tank but I am a little nervous since I plan on keeping LPS. Link to comment
MiddReef Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Knock on wood he/she has been absolutely dominating since the fall, gaining weight and eating like a champ. Initially a shy fish but has really become comfortable and friendly. Maybe I just got really lucky but this one is very eager to eat whatever I toss in. I started with Rods but now he eats frozen, pellet, and even the algae drop in. Very active and interesting dwarf angel Link to comment
MiddReef Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Tank continues to thrive, here is a (not-so-updated) FTS. The system has been running smoothly, I have noticed a great improvement in my water quality and very minimal algae growth since adding the reactor. Highly recommend if nothing else because they're so easy to clean without making a total mess. Keep growing, NR! http://s415.photobucket.com/user/MiddReef/media/photo3_zps93817994.jpg.html'> Bonus! http://s415.photobucket.com/user/MiddReef/media/IMG_3309_zpsc3ccee25.jpg.html'> Link to comment
schaNYC Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Nice tank. What fish is that in front with the stripes? Great addition with the potters. Big fan of dwarf angels. Is that another angel? How do they get along? I added a flame angel a few months ago. They're fun to watch as they explore the tank huh? Link to comment
