Description
The French Angelfish is a popular saltwater fish known for its striking appearance. It is characterized by its deep, flat body, large pectoral fins, and a rounded anal fin. The body is primarily black, but is highlighted with bright yellow or gold scales. The face features a white chin and a mask-like stripe across the eyes.
Reef Safe
No. The French Angelfish is not considered reef safe because it tends to nip at soft and stony polyp corals, sessile invertebrates, and clam mantles.
Environment
French Angelfish thrive in a large tank with plenty of hiding places and live rock for grazing. They prefer warmer waters with a temperature range of 72-78 degrees Fahrenheit. The tank should have a moderate to high water flow and good lighting.
Behavior
The French Angelfish tends to be semi-aggressive. It can be territorial, especially towards others of the same species. However, when kept with a variety of other species, it tends to be more peaceful.
