Normal silver angelfish with lots of blue!

[Cohazard]

I spotted this silver in a tank of mixed angels at my LFS, last week.

Although it caught my eye, I wasn't planning to fall in love with angels again, so I didn't get it, I'm really lucky it was still there!

I was very surprised by how much blue this fish has, I didn't see these blue shades on it at the LFS, it looked mostly gold.

Check it out!

Contrasting with one of my Philippine Silvers:

very nice, how much did you pay for it? It's a nice specimen...

Thank you Joe, I did find some pics of other silver angels that have similar blue irridescence, most are wild blood angels though.

He looks like he is domestic, but could be early generation? Maybe the farm added wild stock to improve their fish? I dunno.

That looks just like my male that was bought as a German Blue from a breeder. He might have the blue gene and could produce some blue fry.
