Japanese Swallowtail Angelfish (Pair)

Japanese Swallowtail Angelfish (Pair)

Snapshot: Also known as the Masked Swallowtail Angelfish. Male stunners rock a bold yellow-orange face with sleek black bars streaking down their body. Female stunners flaunt a creamy white chest that fades into sunny yellow on the dorsal fin, topped off with a fierce black band over the eye and tail.

 

Other tidbits: Can grow up to 21cm or so. Distributed throughout the Northwest Pacific Ocean from Southern Japan to the Philippines.

 

Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, fish-only system, or reef aquarium.

  • Aquarium set-up: Maintain an aquatic utopia by nailing the basics: rock-solid water quality with top-notch filtration and routine partial water changes.

    Feeding: Angelfish are omnivorous champs. Keep 'em happy with a smorgasbord of high-quality marine flakes, nutrient-rich algae like nori, live treats, and frozen crustaceans like brine or mysis shrimp, and top-notch frozen blends.

    AQT note: All our fish feast on a diet of seaweed, marine pellets, flakes and frozen treats under our care. Keep the feast going in your tank!
