Passer Angelfish
Angelfish come in a large array of colors, patterns and sizes that make them very appealing to all levels of hobbyists. The Passer Angels are very hardy and will do quite well in the home aquarium as long as they have sufficient space and a balanced diet. They generally feed on a wide variety of algae, sponges, soft corals and other organisms, which is why they are not recommended for reef aquariums. The Passer Angel can grow to be over a foot in size, so ample swimming space is essential. Full grown adults of this angel will need around 250 gallons; however, you can get away with smaller aquariums when they are juveniles. Like most large angelfish the Passer will go through a complete transformation from juvenile to adult. As a juvenile, they are mostly orange with multiple blue vertical strips and one thick white stipe. Then they have a vibrant yellow caudal tail and blue outlining the other fins. As an adult their coloration will turn to dark blue with the same thick white stripes.
