Is that a Koran Angel?

rgrking · Spawning

that's what I would call it too Adam.

chris&barb · Lost

thats what it looks like to me

Pat B · Geektacular

That was also what I thought, well that or one other, but my top two guesses were wrong according to my LFS. For reference here is a pic of a koran juvenile.

chris&barb · Lost

Is it Pomacanthus (Arusetta) maculosus?

Pat B · Geektacular

Another good guess from a bad pic, but not what the LFS said it was.

Oh yea, I totally had to look your fish up first Chris.

chris&barb · Lost

Ok found it Euxiphipops xanthometopon

Pat B · Geektacular

Well that's not what my LFS called it, but that is the scientific name.

What's the adult look like?

rgrking · Spawning

the blue faced angel. very pretty.

Cool. That is a pretty fish.

Pat B · Geektacular

Not clam or SPS safe, but since I have neither in that tank I should be ok.

rgrking · Spawning

are you going to try the Angel Food that san fran makes? I haven't yet, but it's recommended to get their color. The sponges is the main thing.

Pat B · Geektacular

For now I have some reef nutrition angel food that she seems to love, but I may try that next.

chris&barb · Lost

I thought you were going to stump me. So what did the store call it?

rgrking · Spawning

It's funny to watch mine find all the sponges in the tank. It snacks. It's eating a lot of nori now. I feed two sheets a day. Ever day. lol

Just "Blue Faced Angel", they never put up the scientific names.
