Monster emperor angel

[PYRU]

I'm fully committed to the darkside. I went to look for a porc puffer and ran across an emp angel.

I've seen these in public and private aquariums. The biggest I've seen is roughly 13" . Does anyone have any personal or seen any pics of really big emperors?

My buddy had one that was around 15” in his 120 gallon

I've wanted one forever. What made you get out of sw?

Heres a list of what I'm wanting to do.
5- green chromis
2- clowns
1- fox face (maybe)
1- emperor angel
1- sailfin tang (maybe)
1- porcupine puffer
1- diamond goby

I'd like to work in a blue throat trigger or a picasso.

I got tired of the waste.The salt mix which wasn't cheap to begin with goes down the drain with every water change....also I had moved on to keeping sharks and I later realized I wouldn't be able to keep them in the best possible conditions.

I can only house one but it's a helluva one. Here's some small ones I want to throw in with it.

And if I can find a healthy acclimated one

Here's my inspiration. I think I'm going to have to file 13 the idea of corals though $$$.

its crazy how theres info out there saying a 180 is ok for a bamboo.

The waste does bother me. I figured out a way to cut my RO waste in half but I don't know if it's even possible to reclaim sw like you mention.

Yep and those are what I was keeping along with my horn sharks.I miss them but I don't see myself ever getting any more.
I will probably wind up getting another octopus at some point in the future though.They were the coolest wet pets ever.
