lemon peel angel experience

I have been told time and time again they are one of the worst angels to put in a reef tank... not sure thats true but I have wanted one for sometime and everyone has told me not to get one.

 

Hate to say it but you might want to pass on it... I had the same feeling after I did my research. Still looking for that yellow fish and no I don't want a yellow tang!!!! There is a Tang that mimics the look of the lemon peel but it won't hold the yellow color its entire life if I remember right it changes to a brown!?!? I did lots of research trying to locate jusst the right fish. I am in need of one more fish!!

 

The top photo is the adult coloring....

 

I don't mind the adult coloring either.... still thinking.

 

I think it is called a "yellow mimic tang" but not 100% sure about that - and I had one for several years - very peaceful and reef safe....

 

Yep - same fish just depend on the web site you buy from.... They have the same coloring around the eyes as a Lemon Peel Angel

 

I'd take a good look at both the Canary Blenny and Midas. They have brilliant colors and lovable personalities, as far as fish personalities go that is.

 

brett at petland has an adult mimic in his 300 and i think the adlut looks better then then the juvinile
