Description

The Midnight Angelfish is a saltwater species known for its deep black coloration which can appear velvety or metallic under different lights. This species is native to the reefs of the Indian Ocean and is popular in the aquarium trade.

Reef Safe

With caution. While they are generally safe for reef tanks, they have been known to nip at soft and stony polyp corals, as well as clam mantles.

Environment

The Midnight Angelfish prefers a well-lit tank with plenty of hiding spots. These fish do well in tanks with live rock for grazing and are more likely to thrive in environments that mimic their natural reef habitat.

Behavior

Midnight Angelfish are generally peaceful but can be semi-aggressive with other angelfish or similar looking species. They are known to be a bit shy and may spend time hiding when first introduced to a new environment.
