My coral beauty eats brain corals/acans. I would love to find a new home for him but my wife would not be to happy

just for reference

i like my african flameback(centropyge acanthops) It looks just like that guy but the yellow goes all the way through the tail. He does not seem to like too bright of light. c argi would also be another choice for you. of course this all depends on what your current livestock is. it's 50/50 on most centropyge species on reef safety. Mine nips, but does no damage.

well i went to my LFS to see the fireballs and they were just COVERED in ich, poor fish
but on the up side, i got a real big, around 4-5inches, and nice coral beauty they just got that is really fat and just looks great!
hopefully once i add him in the reef tank after QT he doesnt eat the corals! i just got some nice acans
