Their beautiful royal blue, orange and yellow colors will stand out in any aquarium. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although small they need a fairly large tank (70+ gallons) as they are very active fish and love to eat algae all day long. Mine lives with other peaceful fish and I have never had any aggression issues. Only keep 1 dwarf angel per tank as they will be aggressive toward each other.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are prone to nip at soft and stony corals, so may be better suited to a FOWLR aquarium. Mine hasn’t bothered my corals, so it’s up to you if you want to risk it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Best added to an already established tank so there’s plenty of algae to nibble at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hardy, reef safe and peaceful towards other species of fish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You should keep only 1 goby in the tank unless you get a mated pair and add them to a larger tank at the same time. Tank size should be at least 30 gallons and they will grow to around 6″.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This little fish is part of the tank’s clean-up crew. They need plenty of live sand to bury in and will sift it all day long to find food and keep it spotlessly clean for you. You need to make sure enough food is getting to the bottom of your tank or they will starve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These guys are great little characters and are a great addition to any tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peaceful with other species, reef safe, and easy to care for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These guys are fun to watch as they dart around the tank super fast. Tank size should be at least 20 gallons, so a great fish for a nano tank. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can keep them on their own or in groups. They can be timid at first, so need to have plenty of places to hide if they get startled. Don’t be alarmed if you don’t see them for a few days, they will reappear once settled in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although these are a goby, they won’t sift your sand and keep it clean as the diamond goby will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They love to nip at soft and stony corals, sessile invertebrates and clams, so best kept in a FOWLR aquarium. Like the coral beauty, your flame angelfish needs to be the only dwarf angel in the tank as they are territorial and will be aggressive towards each other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They will get along with other peaceful fish, however, I recommend you add the flame angel to your tank last to avoid any territorial issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
