34 Gallon ANGLER TANK!!!

He ate another one. Worried he's gonna get sick. But here's his victory pose. Same as yesterday, eats then comes to the front of the tank to gloat. Lol.

What size tank is yours in and what's his name?

 

[Fish noob]

30G. Haven't named him yet. I'm open for suggestions

 

[AbsoluteFaye]

I can think of a whole bunch of names but they're all girly and cute and so far off from a name for an angler. (Hence "Fluffy") lol. Call him Princess. Haha. Or Killer.

 

[Grizz]

Camo-Joe lol

Haha thx!

Well, he ate another frozen silverside today. I'm really excited to see he's eating frozen so well.

I haven't named him yet. I usually let my 3-yr old daughter name the fish. I'll have her name him tonight.

 

[AbsoluteFaye]

Yours is looking great! Ours look so similar.

 

[Fish noob]

So is yours!

I already want to get him a tank mate. Perhaps a white/maroon or an all red.

I might go for the yellow one at my friends store. There's more than enough room in my tank and if they get bigger I can always return the yellow. But I wanna wait a little and make sure this one eats from me, not just the chromis. And there are still two left. The other one was hiding. Tried catching them again but they always dart back to the same spot where I can't reach.

I'm following! I'm setting up a 55g and was planning an anemone tank.. But reading this I'm thinking..... How big do these guys get. Say in a 55g.. And do they eat snails and or crabs?

 

[AbsoluteFaye]

Wartskins only need a 20 gal. They get about 4 inches. Some other anglers get larger. A 55 would be cool if you had two or three. Someone else on here said they'd be ok with nems. I absolutely love mine after only having him a few days.

 

[AbsoluteFaye]

They eat shrimp for sure. He hasn't looked at my Annika or crabs but I got tiny ones just in case. No bigger than an inch.

 

[JJ-MIK]

That would be sweet if I can do both nems and anglers.... But I was think of a full out nem tank. Like the ones I've seen in google search . I just typed in anemone tank and browsed all the images.

 

[Fish noob]

Have you tried feeding frozen yet?

 

[AbsoluteFaye]

Yup. He was instantly interested and took a bite but missed. Then he took another bite and ate fine. Gonna feed him again tomorrow.
