Mesoleucus Angel = Singapore Angel??

[nycfish]

Hi, I really like this angel, anyone knows how big is it gonna be? Is it reef safe?

Is it also called Singapore Angel?

 

[tangerine]

yup,it's also know as Singapore Angel. can grow up to 7" .generally not recommended for a reef tank but shud be no worse than the risk most take with dwarf angels.

Almost all of the Angels aren't reef safe, from the small pygmy to the large angels. It's always a crap shoot if they may eat some corals, and it doesn't always happen right away, it can take weeks, months or even a year before they start. So if you willing to take the chance, and can live with it eating one of your corals, go for it.

The Mesoleucus or Singapore angels aren't the easiest to keep, and neither is the Keyhole. If you had a problem keeping the Keyhole you may want to look at one of the more hardier angels before you go with another one that isn't easy to keep, like the Mesoleucus.

Sounds advice from one of the senior fish only keepers.
