French Angelfish

Kent · 09-10-2003, 06:04 PM

The black and yellow striped fish, Number 9, is labeled:

A French Angelfish: Pomacanthus Paru

However I do not see any Pomacanthus Paru that are similar to that. I think it is a beautiful fish and would like to know its name, so I can read some info on it.

That is the same fish, except the example provided is an adult of the species.

Remember that all inhabitants in Jim's Aquarium are juveniles, and many Juveniles vary from there Adult counterparts. In fact many juveniles make extreme transformations in there shapes/patterns that make them look like completely different fish(especially in the case of Angelfishes).

The fish you are referring to is indeed a juvenile French Angelfish(Pomacanthus Paru). Take a look here: http://www.castlecomfortdivelodge.co...s/stripes.html

YES!! That's all true!! Man I do love fish. I submitted a list of fishies for the marine wishlist that I don't believe are on it:

Acanthurus lineatus (clown trigger)
Synchiropus picturatus (psychadelic fish)
Centropyge heraldi (Herald's angelfish)
Chaetodonplus conspicillatus (conspicuous angelfish)
Centropyge flavissimus (lemonpeel angel)
Chaetodonplus duboulayi (scribbled angelfish)
Chaetodon larvatus (redheaded butterflyfish)
Thalassoma lunare (moon wrasse)
Oxymonocanthus longirostris (longnosed filefish)
Amphipryon polymnus (white saddled clownfish)
Dascyllus marginatus (marginate damselfish)
Pariglyphidodon melanopus (yellowbacked damselfish)
Pomacentrus violascens (yellow tailed demoiselle)

^_^" It's a pretty long list!!!

Seafoam,

Yes I got your requests. But if you will check the settings on your aquarium you will find that the clown trigger is already included.

As for the rest, if you would like them included on the wishlist photo page, find me some photos and send them.

PS. Welcome to the forum.

WOW! You people are sure fast. I can hardly keep up. :-P Anyhow, I must have missed the Clown trigger.....oops! Sorry 'bout that one. Umm....okay, I'll find pictures tomorrow (it's getting pretty late here in NJ) and send 'em to you.

Seafoam · 09-13-2003, 09:06 AM

OKAY THEY'RE IN THE WISHLIST THREAD NOW WHERE THEY BELONG!!

Jav400 · 09-13-2003, 10:40 AM

Seafoam,

You need to be posting these in the Wishlist thread, thats what it is for.

Seafoam · 09-13-2003, 11:02 AM

ACK! Okay. Well...I actually posted them here, and the rest in their own separate thread. I also sent you the URLs. If I get any more I'll remember to put them in the Wishlist thread.

Seafoam · 09-13-2003, 11:24 AM

On second thought, now I see you moved the other pics to the Wishlist thread, so I guess I'll take these out and put 'em there.
