I’ve kept this angelfish for over a year in a 75-gallon reef tank. It’s active and colorful, though it does occasionally chase smaller fish. I’ve added some larger, hardy species to reduce stress. It’s a beautiful addition to a well-established tank.

The fish looks great and has adapted well to the tank. I’m careful with tankmates and avoid keeping it with very small or slow-moving species. It’s not the easiest fish to maintain, but it’s worth it for the appearance.
Phil Harris –
I’m new to reef keeping and found the care level to be quite high. The fish is active and vibrant, but I had to adjust my tank setup to match its needs. Not recommended for beginners.
