I’ve always liked pushing the limits with my reef a little.
A few years ago I kept a juvenile Emperor Angelfish in my reef for almost two years. Watching him transition into adult colors was amazing and he almost felt like a pet… until one day he decided my corals tasted pretty good 😅
Now I’m tempted again.
I’ve been thinking about trying a captive bred Regal Angelfish. From what I’ve read they adapt better to prepared foods and sometimes behave better in reefs.
For those who have tried it:
Would you risk a captive bred Regal in a reef tank?
Or is it just a matter of time before it starts sampling corals?
Would love to hear your experiences before I give in to the temptation.

Pair of clownfish in 15 gallon cube tank, what other fishes can I add ? Any coral placement suggestions?
Another question. I’ve got a Kleins butterfly fish. I’ve heard mixed reviews on coral nipping with these guys. I figured I’d do sps corals and he wouldn’t bother them much, but just read a story about a Klein skipping over softies specifically for the sps, which I found bizarre.. I don’t have any coral yet but was wanting to start that up soon. Is it worth the risk, or should I rehome him and try another fish?
Can I add a blue angel to a reef tank?
My new corals are doing well, I really want to add another fish to the tank (I have a Fluval Evo 13.5), I already have 2 clownfish does anyone have any recommendations?
My current set up. I have 2 clowns in there (one black one normal orange) Klein butterfly fish 3 chromis (2 green/blue and 1 black) a banggai cardinal a royal gramma and 3 turbo snails. I want to ad some more fish and looking for some good ideas. I have 2 bubble tip nems touch coral and some others.
Looking for recommendations on fish!
