Just picked up a new Imperator Angel tonight from a local fish store. The store had it miss labled as a Koran Angel and Priced it out at $29.00. I ask the sales clerk if he was sure that was the right price and he said it was. Talk about a Steal. He is awsome looking.

Well now...Even if it was a Koran Angel that is a great price...And yes, we need photos!

i just googled your new fish since i'm not familiar with it, but i recognize it now! i love the design on it and it's been on my wish list since i saw it at the LFS.

But when i googled it, i learned there were different signs of juvenile (circles) and adult (horizontal lines). does that mean juvenile turns to adult or is it just a term for a smaller fish? i really like the white circles on it.

Tumbleweed

The Juvenille turns into an adult. You have to be carefull though The imperator angel and the Koran angel look very similiar when they are Juvenilles

Tumbleweed

He made himself just visibal enough for a pic. Not the best but it will work for now.

Salvatore

WOW!!! Usually you know that the LFS is overcharging you but you got one over on them!! That along with the Queen are my 2 favorite fish! So cool! Good luck with him. Once my tank is established my goal is to get a QUEEN or an EMPEROR . The 2 of them are just impressive fish!!! Did you name him yet??

Salvatore

Make sure you keep us up to date on your pictures. I would love to see what he looks like as he makes the transformation. How long do you think it will take??

Well the angel appears to be much more at home now in his new tank. Yesterday he pretty much stayed hidden behind some rocks and as of right now he is doing laps around the tank. I wish I had a video camera to record this. it is quite funny. He takes the same route every time.

HaHa, that sounds great!

Wow... I've never seen that before!!

I have one myself and he has been great. I have had mine for about 8 months now and his circle are now straightening out. He has become the bully in the tank, but not too bad. He will will grunt and let the other fish know when it is time to move, and let me know when he is ready to eat. It is the coolest thing. It took me a good month to figure out what that noise was, but it was him. Ofcorse, I am out of town and do not have any pics on me, but I will try and get some up in the next couple of days so you can see the beginning of the transformation. But, I have heard that there is not any guarantee that they will transform in captivity. Beautifull fish either way.
