Received the tiny Flame Angelfish and it’s vibrant red color is striking. It’s active but not overly aggressive. I’ve kept it in a 30-gallon tank with corals, and it’s adapted well. The fish seems healthy and shows interest in the surroundings.

The fish arrived quickly and looks exactly as described. It’s small but very colorful. I’m cautious about adding other fish, but it’s not causing any issues so far. Good for a beginner reef setup.
