I do believe the issue the other two gentlemen are having is the fact they both have more than one Pygmy Angel in their tank. I have a lemonpeel and love her....she is docile to all other tank mates and is best of friends with my Purple Tang. You need to feed lots of seaweed, I personally like the Julia Sprung's dried seaweed. Great and beautiful fish, but don't put more than one pygmy angel in your tank at a time unless you have 125 gals or more and they are introduced at the same time and as juveniles.

My boyfriend bought me a bicolor angel for my tank today for our anniversary and it is absolutely gorgeous. i'm hoping he does not become difficult to keep. seems to be quite happy in his new enviornment. thanks for all the information.

I've got a Regal Angel just approaching 5 inches and it is a great feeder. I feed brine and mysis shrimp, it also ate most of my macro algaes so looks like i need to restock. System is quite mature, I just have a couple of small pieces of live rock and not a reef system. So far it appears to share the tank well with others including a 3 inch flame angel.

UPDATE: I recently had a nitrate spike in my tank. My Potters Angel stopped eating and died the next day. I was very sad to lose this fish. I kept him successfully for four months. Reasonably hardy but won't tolerate poor water conditions.

I put a Lemonpeel and a Flame Angel in my small (60gal) established tank. All was well for 6 months, apart from some minor aggression. The aggression got more serious recently and today I found my Flame almost motionless in a top corner of the tank. The Lemonpeel had ripped him to shreds. He's in a recovery tank now and should be alright. The Lemonpeel has to go as he is the bully. He seems to get bored and start trouble for fun. Eats anything I put in the tank though - especially brine shrimp.

Bought a 3" Potters Angelfish about a month ago. He's in a 135 gallon tank with a 30 gallon sump and a 30 gallon refugium. About 200 pounds of live rock and 100 pounds of live sand. Tank mates are: Passer Angel, Koran Angel, Blonde Naso Tang, Kole Tang, Yellow Tang, Sohal Tang, Volitans Lion. He was rather expensive and I was a bit nervous putting him in a tank with much larger and bolder fish. Especially after reading that they can be rather shy and rarely come out of hiding. He proved to be the exact opposite. Almost always out in the open, often grazing on the live sand. He is a beautiful fish and adds a gorgeous splash of vivid reddish orange and purple. One of my favorite and strongest fish. Farely rare and expensive but well worth it.
