The Watanabei Angelfish thrives in a large tank with plenty of hiding spots and open swimming space. It prefers a tank with a strong current and high-quality filtration to mimic its natural ocean habitat.
Behavior
This species is known to be semi-aggressive. While it can coexist with other species, it may show territorial behavior, especially towards other angelfish. It is also a very active swimmer and enjoys exploring its environment.
