Description
The Coral Beauty Angelfish is a saltwater fish that is popular among aquarists due to its vibrant colors and relatively small size. It has a deep blue body and yellow to orange highlights, giving it a striking appearance.
Reef Safe?
With caution. Though they may nip at stony and soft corals and clam mantles, many aquarists have been successful in keeping them in reef aquariums.
Environment
They require plenty of hiding spots and live rock for grazing. A well-filtered aquarium with good water quality is essential for their health.
Behavior
Coral Beauty Angelfish are semi-aggressive and can become territorial, especially in smaller aquariums. They may nip at stony and soft corals and clam mantles.

It is very questionable to me why I’ve had such a hard time with this specimen. I have read numerous articles about how it’s possible that the coral beauty and bicolor angelfish suffer from cruel fishing prescribes such as cyanide and sedatives. I believe this to be the reason why I’ve had such a hard time with this particular fish but not others in its family.

Beautiful fish. Never had any issues with it picking at corals but this could vary from fish to fish. Pretty peaceful but would sometimes pick on new additions but settles after a few days.
