When I've had more than one at a time, no, not at all. There are three in there now. Before, they've stood on top of each other and not gave a $hit, lol.

Anglers don't really care about other anglers, but anything that moves faster than them are in danger.
 
My white angler is trying to hide in the dragons breath :spy:

And here's the difference between a wartskin and a common angler:

When the wife gets home I'm gonna have her pull out her macro lens and give these guys some proper shoots.
 
Cool tank but may want to read A LOT more on anglers and their diets as well as being housed together....I've had my share of anglers and first off are very difficult to get trained to eat frozen. Ghost shrimp even though gut loaded are not a nutritious meal for your angler. He will gladly eat shrimp all day long, as well as feeder fish. Saltwater feeder fish is the only fish you should be feeding. With that being said for your angler to be happy and healthy as possible you need to train him to eat a variety of frozen foods. You won't see the bright colors and growth out of your fish when thu r just snacking on shrimp....live aquaria feeds all their anglers and predator fish live ghost shrimp because its easily on hand and the fish never refuse it. They're not trying to keep alive forever just till you buy it. Your anglers will seem ok and them all standing on top of each other is not a cool looking picture only. The one on top is trying to keep the other from eating as well with the others. Best of luck to you with the angler tank. If u buy a goby it will get eaten I promise that. Your anglers being different sized will compete for the same food that you're feeding them. And since you have anglers u know they don't move to fast. Like to walk around and occasionally "fly" swim for food. They don't move fast and won't fight each other like a faster fish would. Unless you have some serious time into watching your fish interact, then I'm guessing they will be aggressive towards each other. Try a giant angler for your next purchase
 
Anyone have recommendations for display macro algae? I'd love to make a "fuge" hangout for the anglers. Add some color and natural filtration at the same time.
 
I've seen those for sure. I'm hoping to find some locally, or jump into another order. I don't wanna spend $40 in shipping for a plant! lol
 
don't buy the ones on ebay. I bought the set and 90% arrived dead. dragon breath was all orange liquid. wasted $
 
Some new pics. Still iphone pics but not so bad.
