Description

A large Indo-Pacific angelfish whose striking juvenile pattern of dark blue-black with semicircular white and electric-blue bars transforms into a mottled olive-tan adult with blue-edged fins, a blue-speckled body, and a dark opercular spine. It is a bold, territorial grazer that needs a very large, mature system with heavy rockwork for hiding and grazing plus wide open swimming lanes, strong filtration, and brisk oxygenated flow. Keep only one per tank and avoid housing it with other angelfish; it is best added last, since it becomes pugnacious toward newcomers in an established territory.

Reef Safe
