so anyone with experience i notice my coral beauty is was showing a little aggression yesterday, i haven't seen her do it this morning is this mild and nothing i need to be concerned with? took the video yesterday she kinda nips at them then swims away every once and a while no other fish are showing any aggression and this is the first time the coral beauty has shown any aggression to any fish in the tank

I think its typical of angels my flame does the same to my yellow tang. sometimes but my tang is kind of a butt so theres that factor also.

happy to report that the coral beauty has stopped the aggression she had with them at least today and yesterday lol

i hope it doesn't get worse i would hate to have to catch this fish to take it out that would be a headache

he said the fish ate frozen and pellet at the wholesaler site or in his "observation" tank?

the coral beauty hasn't shown anymore aggression to the butterfly fish they all swim together now

 

[hzheng33]

are the prices of the fish on the website correct?

some bread and butter fishes are 2x what the typical lfs charge. for example, female lyretail anthias.

or if you don't mind me asking, did you pay 72 for a pyramid? i'm also interested in one.
