Hi folks. many thanks for the compliments..(where is the blush emoticon when you need it)..
Yes she does, usually strait after the halides go out, and she rises within 10 min of them comming on. Terry's write up is bang on the money imo. and Id emphasise what he says that these fish have a very high metabolism so need both a large and well established system and regular feeds of high quality foods. Ive managed to get all my wrasses onto high protien pellet foods which does help as well as a lot of mixed frozen foods.
No, its an Emporer angel. Pomocanthus imperator. I wanted to experiment with this species over the long term to see if the usual habit of predating on LPS as they reach maturity can be diverted by way of more diverse feeding methods involving wild collected sponge, tunicate and algal type food stuffs in addition to normal commercially available food types.
Jonathan...No problems, Im allways happy to oblige.
Josh.
when i get 5, I'll bang up some more details and images of the actual tank build, plus details on how i actually run the system on a day to day basis, feeding, suppliments etc.
regards to all and thanks again for the compliments which are greatly appreciated.

hey Simon, does your fish bury itself in the sand?? btw the coloration on yours is far better than any pics that ive seen so far!!

And may I ask...is that a koran angel in a reef tank?
