Flagfin Angelfish
Angelfish come in a large array of colors, patterns and sizes that make them very appealing to all levels of hobbyists. This fish can be shy at first, so providing a lot of hiding places will help reduce its stress. Because their natural diet is so varied, aquarists should always feed a diet that is similarly well rounded. They generally feed on a wide variety of algae, sponges, tunicates and other benthic organisms. The Flagfin Angel can grow to be about 10" in size, so ample swimming space is necessary. Full grown adults of this angel will need around 125 gallons; however, you can get away with smaller aquariums when they are juveniles. The Flagfin Angel is primarily yellow with blue lips with a black marking on the dorsal portion of its head. Then they also have a black and white large marking on their anal fin. This angel has a fairly wide distribution within the Indo-Pacific around outer coral reef slopes and drop offs up to 80 meters deep.
