Very common on the Great Barrier Reef, the Coral Beauty
Angelfish is also known as the Twospined or Dusky Angelfish. The body and head
are a deep royal blue, highlighted with an iridescent orange to yellow. The
Coral Beauty Angelfish is one of the easiest angels to care for.
It requires a 70 gallon or larger tank with lots of
hiding places and live rock for grazing. Not a good reef dweller, the Coral
Beauty Angelfish is prone to nip at stony and soft corals (sessile
invertebrates).
The diet of the Coral Beauty Angelfish should consist of
Spirulina, marine algae, high-quality angelfish preparations, mysis or frozen
shrimp, and other quality meaty foods.
