Description
The Regal Angelfish is a vibrant, colorful saltwater fish that is known for its striking appearance. It has a body that is primarily blue and yellow, with a pattern of vertical white and blue stripes on the head and front half of the body, and alternating yellow and black stripes on the back half.
Reef Safe
With caution. The Regal Angelfish can nip at soft and stony polyp corals, clam mantles, and large-polyped stony corals.
Environment
The Regal Angelfish requires a well-filtered aquarium with plenty of hiding spots. They thrive in environments that mimic their natural reef habitat, with live rock for grazing and plenty of swimming space.
Behavior
This species is known to be somewhat shy, often hiding amongst the rocks and crevices of the tank. They can also be territorial, especially towards other angelfish.
