Why Choose the Coral Beauty Angelfish (Centropyge bispinosa)?
The Coral Beauty Angelfish is an excellent choice for aquarists seeking a hardy, colourful, and manageable species for their marine aquarium. Its vivid blue and orange hues create a striking focal point, while its adaptability and resilience make it suitable for both beginner and experienced hobbyists.

- Feeding: Coral Beauty Angelfish thrive on a varied omnivorous diet. Provide high-quality marine pellets or flakes, supplemented with algae-based foods like spirulina and nori. Live or frozen treats such as brine shrimp and mysis shrimp should also be included. Feed 2-3 times daily in small portions.
- Tank Setup: Provide a tank of at least 55 gallons with plenty of live rock for grazing and hiding. Coral Beauty Angelfish are active swimmers and appreciate a well-structured environment with caves and crevices to explore.
- Behaviour: Coral Beauty Angelfish are generally peaceful but may display mild territorial behaviour, especially in smaller tanks or toward other angelfish. They coexist well with other non-aggressive fish and are suitable for community setups.
