Description
The Flagfin Angelfish is a large, striking marine angelfish recognized by its bold vertical striping, yellow highlights, and prominent dorsal fin shape. It is admired for its beauty but is best suited for experienced aquarists due to its size, dietary needs, and sensitivity during acclimation.

Environment
Requires a mature saltwater aquarium with stable water quality, abundant live rock for grazing and shelter, open swimming space, and plenty of hiding places. Best kept in tropical marine conditions with excellent filtration and low stress.
Behavior
Generally active and somewhat shy at first, but becomes more confident once established. It may nip at sessile invertebrates and can become territorial toward other angelfish or similarly shaped fish.
