Marine Angelfish Tank HD

[fidodappa]

looking good..i recently got a blueline - after 8months of waiting!!!

[Pop12646Okami]

I don't really know why, but marine angelfish don't really appeal to me. I mean, they have pretty colors and patterns, but I just seem to like freshwater angelfish more. Either way, beautiful fish and tank. :)

[guninhatersdown]

nice fucking song hahhaha

[biggayute]

Absolutely stunning Tank well done m8!

I'm looking at setting up a Fowlr tank, got a betta lifespace 1500 Comming how many angels do you reackon I could keep in there.

Tank will have 60kg liverock. What fish forums do you frequent. Thanks

[RahulBristol]

@biggayute Thanks, you should be able to keep several angels in there.... at least 6. I check out Ultimate Reef (uk) and Reef Central (us)

[bennux0117]

Beautiful....just beautiful.....great music as well.....only problem......now I don't know what angel to get for my tank....thanks a lot! ;)

[bennux0117]

Beautiful....just beautiful.....great music as well.....only problem......now I don't know what angel to get for my tank....thank a lot! ;)

[RahulBristol]

@bennux0117 If I had to recommend an Angelfish I would say....... Blueline

[MBO5king]

Did you get your Koran angel when he was little if you did how long did it take him to the size he is now.

[pro194757]

do you have any special tips to keep the angel xtra happy n healthy?

[S10sittnonRVM22s]

I love that goldflake angel. What size tank is that? Looks almost big enough for all those fish, but not near as bad as 75% of the tanks on youtube.

[pro194757]

take a look at my annularis i bought 4 mths aago

[RahulBristol]

@pro194757 Nice, post another vid when it reaches adult colours!

[pro194757]

@RahulBristol the color has already changed..you can see the lines now..and its super fatttttttt

[ooow3n]

Wow I didn't even relize the first time i saw this video, that scribble of your is a female and the yellow line on its back is actually all the way to its head!!! RARE!!!

[RahulBristol]

@ooow3n That scribbled was a fantastic fish. Didn't know about the yellow band being rare. Grew to a good 8 inches. Got rid of it cos it was a female. And it's taken me a couple of years to find a XL male scribbled replacement. Thanks

[SuperGDetroit]

Sick mix!

[RahulBristol]

@SuperGDetroit Thanks, probably a bit too crazy!

[g2gpce]

can angelfish live with female betta fish in a 20 gallon tank

[my89tube]

Angelfish are my favorite kind of fish. it just SUCKS that most of them are not reef compatible.

[crazy9956]

emporor angel changing

[johnroavideos]

Nice Aquarium and i have a question for you, is one wrasse enough to keep away parasites?

I have my tank with four angelfish and they always chase each other, maybe because my tank is 72 gallons

[RahulBristol]

@johnroavideos 72 gallons is a bit small. But seriously I think fish like being around other fish. when I keep 2 angelfish, they are nervous, jumpy, shy, skittish and often hide. If I keep 10 they are all happy swimming around.

[mloadone]

wow very nice aquarium well done

[RahulBristol]

Thanks man..

[RouDdaiLLe]

Are they still alive , the fish are beautiful but the tank seems to be very poor in living rocks ... ?

[conspicillum2]

vasca top bravo !!!

[RahulBristol]

thanks....

[BALDWINAQUAMAN]

what song is this dude awesome.

[RandomDub]

I have 2 questions. How many gallons? And do you ever seen major problems with aggression from the angel fish towards each other?

[RahulBristol]

Only about 150 gallons.

Yes some aggression from Queen angel, Asfer angel and Emperor mainly.

[SkilfulLeader1]

Hi there, just wondered is that a jap blue line in there, if so very expensive but very nice

[RahulBristol]

Chinese Blue Line Angelfish. One of my favorites, had to wait a couple of months for that one, he's about 7"

[cutietwo22]

wow beautiful tank. They all have great color and look healthy keep up the good work!!

[RahulBristol]

Getting really hard to maintain, will do some changing and post a new video.

[chineseperson12345]

Awesome tank....I share the same passion as you

[RahulBristol]

Thanks "chineseperson" hopefully you understand this tank I have put together, as many people don't!

[ooow3n]

@RahulBristol I understand this tank... Very nice, i own an saltwater bussiness i been in the bussiness for 12 years.

[monakia1]

how long did you have these fishes together without killin each other? :)

[RahulBristol]

They may have outgrown my tank.

I may have nitrate problems.

But they certainly haven't killed each other.

[eggvader]

thats a well nice tank mate amazing angels

[CryptKeeper44]

Many many people hous elarge angels together. I have a 500 gallon getting set up and I will have just as many. They will their issues but will kept fat and happy problems shouldnt arise

[blindmonkey732]

how do you get the angles to not kill each other?

[Weazell]

Wow, those are some beautiful fish

[RahulBristol]

Yeah I agree large marine angelfish are stunning in my opinion.

[spamula30]

what was the problem with the flag fin?

[RahulBristol]

Flagfins are a bit sensitive. Suited to a more peaceful environment, with optimum water quality. They can be tricky to maintain long term in such a tank.

[ji3200]

i guess you can put many angelfish in one tank. never trust those fish experts.they told me they kill eachother.

[JayElWu]

Agreed. We should send this video to WetWeb and see if that Anthony guy starts his flaming attacks :)

Some people just dont believe there are fish other than flame angels that can thrive in captivity.

[jacklad99]

hey cool tank is cupramine ok to use with live rock ?

[nwyk153]

damn... love ur angels... the only angel that survive in my tank is my Koran and Lamark's.

[coolhud]

A proper home for a cleaner wrasse...

[757Getmoney]

swweeettt angel tank

[jerimikko]

is flagfin very sensitive to water temperature? high nitrate, nitrite and ammonia levels? good thing it is already feeding when you got it.. i really like to have one..

[RahulBristol]

Yeah, it seems more sensitive to these parameters and medication than other angelfish such as the Blueline or Goldflake. But if your stocking is lower and you have good water quality then Flagfin is OK.

[jerimikko]

nice tank!! is your flagfin angelfish already feeding?? if it is, how did you train it to eat? because i have read in some websites that flagfin is difficult to keep.. i am planning to buy one..

[RahulBristol]

Yes, was feeding when i bought it. It eats everything...frozen stuff, flakes, seaweed. But its a temperamental fish which can suddenly stop eating. I have since removed mine (check my update vid). I have kept 2 flagfins (1small 1Large) and I would rate it as a difficult fish, because it needs consistent excellent water quality. If your water quality is good its easier to keep. I have never found feeding to be a problem with these specimens.

[tkreefer]

Beautiful tank!! Any Nitrate/Phosphate problems with that fish load??

[RahulBristol]

Thanks. And yeah nitrate is now my biggest challenge. Doing frequent water changes/maintenance. Rowaphos dealing with the phosphate. Just put up an update video, so check that out.

[rocklord423]

UNBELIEVABLE ! LIVE POETRY IN MOTION !!!!!

please!!! can u answer these questions? 1.what type of filter set up ?2. what is your acclimation process?3.what was your method when adding all the different angels ?4. Did you quarantine each one? 5.how long total have this group been together?6 have you had any problem with ich and if you did how did you deal with it? (((( not trying to bombard u with so many questions ,But what you did with all those angels in one 150 g tank is incredible! & wow!

[RahulBristol]

Thanks. 1) 2xEheim 2080 External with Seachem Matrix, Rena BioChem Stars and Eheim Substrat Pro Media. Deltec MCE600 Skimmer. 2) No special acclimation process, usual 20 mins. 3) I added the biggest first and smallest last. Usually 2 per time. 4) No quarantine. 5) 3 Months. 6) Yes, Cupramine was used throughout stocking phase.

[rocklord423]

thanks for your response! when u bought your more expensive angels did u observe them doing well in the fish store?or did u order them and right out of the bag into your tank? 2. do u have any kind of problems with all of those angels that concern u?3. what do you feed them?4. ever have ammonia ,ph,nitrate issues? 5.how long has this tank been running? thanks!

[RahulBristol]

1) Ordered all fish as I wanted. Then collected from LFS. Although Blueline and Scribbled came straight from TMC. I trust my dealer to pick me good feeding and healthy specimens from the local TMC. 2) Bullying, Disease, Feeding well, are my concerns. 3) New Era flakes, dry seaweed, frozen mysis, brineshrimp are main foods. 4) nitrate issues. 5) 6 months.

[rocklord423]

a man! thanks . i was very interested in your daring accomplishment. .most would not even think about putting so many beautiful angel fish together. also thanks for expressing your challenges,concerns and methods. it shows that besides your display of this awesome show tank ,your also a real life hobbyist . this video encouraged me do what i felt could be done on a smaller level so far i have had success with a half back and baby blue angel.next 2 add a flame & flagfin .75 g thanks!

[RahulBristol]

cool, i've just added a flame myself. Caution with the flagfin, it is one of the most challenging fish in the longer term.

[rocklord423]

thanks for the advice. in what way was the flagfin a challenge ?

[ollieflp]

is it important to keep an eye on magnesium and calcium?

[RahulBristol]

For my tank, I don't check for these parameters. So I couldn't even tell you the levels. Its not important because I do not have corals.

[smilezwerver7]

Thanks it`s beautiful.

[nwyk153]

[RahulBristol]
