Coral Beauty

Emg · 03-22-2008, 05:52 AM

Just purchased a new fish....(LOVE doing that !

).....

I've got it in a QT right now....I hope I can resist the urge to toss it in the display too soon.....

I took a few pics....they're lousy but the best I could do right now since it can't seem to sit still. I had to use the flash so the colors are a bit washed out. I Probably won't be able to get any decent pics until I get it in the display. This is one of the prettiest coral beauties that I've seen in awhile and very healthy looking.

There was a beautiful flame angel at the store too and I had a bit of a time deciding which one to get. The coral beauty looked a bit fatter to me and it was also about 25$ cheaper.......soooo.......that along with the fact that there was no guarantee on the fish.....helped me to make up my mind.

Wow, I must agree, that is one of the best looking coral beauties I have seen as well. I have never seen one with such bright blues. Usually they are much darker.

What a perky, bright beauty!

It isn't really that bright...the flash makes it look that way.....this pic better shows the true colors...but.....it's a TERRIBLE shot ! lol
It does really have the neon blue along the edge of the fins though....VERY pretty fish !

it really is a nice clean little fish...no blemishes or questionable marks on it at all. Unlike some of the coral beauties I saw at the LFS today. Cloudy eyes, fuzzy patches....general poor health. Too bad....
