ChrisQ Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Breaking down another tank and she's pretty much last one, she's been with me for a little over two years but i'm afraid she's not going to make the new tank, although a model citizen when i had her with sps,lps a couple years ago i never really had any problems with her but can't guarantee she won't nip at yours This is a older pic but she's blood red fat, and healthy Eats vitamin enriched (Selcon,garlic,vit-c) frozen foods like a pig $45 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclipse522 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I always liked flame angles. My tank is a little to small for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisQ Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 Have you noticed it ever nip at coral? No, not myself, but like i said i can't guarantee what she'll do in anyone else's tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icepikbiker Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Would you take $20 if my wife lets me. lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisQ Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 This fish is NOT for sale for $20-$25 If people are not willing to spend the proper amount for a fish then it probally shouldn't go to them anyway. I think my range of $40-$45 is fair, i see them in LFS going for $65.00 Don't mean to sound rude but with some of the low ball offers i somewhat start to question if she'll receive the same level of care she receives from me (diet) She is doing great in her temp holding tank for now, I guess I could post up a short feeding video for those that might be interested. Pics are good, videos better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icepikbiker Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I apologize if my offer offended you, that was not my intention. My offer was mainly based on the fact that I have spend a fair amount of money on the little sticks I have in my tank and don't really want to spend a lot of money on a really cool fish that I might have to catch, aka tear apart my tank, next weekend because it has started nipping at my corals or my clam. IMO it sounds like you have prob had a few low ball offers besides mine and I believe that is do to the same reasons as mine. There are not a lot of people any more doing FOWLR tanks and are not afraid of "coral eating" fish. I do think Flame Angels are really cool fish and just because someone low balls you on a risky fish doesn't mean the fish will not be well taken care of. And again I am not aiming to offend you in anyway, I will actually PM you shortly with a better offer, aka my wife really likes Flame Angels also.

ChrisQ Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 I fully understand, I'm not very good with words sometimes, I guess at the end of the day getting her a happy and safe home is more important to me then making a buck, hence my concerns after a few offers and trying to view it from several angles (if it's one thing this hobby has taught me its taking a pro-active approach to things) Which is what you're doing and I commend you for that, I too share the same concerns as yourself, while I'm quite attached to this fish, I don't fancy the idea of trying to catch her in 5ft of tonga branch if a problem arose, which is why I decided to let her go. In my case the worry is fish vs fish instead of fish vs coral I myself have never had her with a clam but when she was in a mixed reef she spent 90% of her time picking at rocks. The clam would concern me though. I'm not offended with low ball offers, just getting it out there so others know ahead of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
