Description

Looks like a Butterfly fish, often mislabeled as a Centropyge angelfish, the Singapore Angelfish is an unsung hero that loves a community aquarium and in some cases, even a reef! Singapore Angelfish is thought to be a hermaphrodite and can change from one sex to another. Offer lots of hiding places for this species in the way or rock and overhangs so it can adapt to it’s new home as it is a fairly shy fish during initial introduction.

Diet

Feed a varied diet consisting of large chunks of meaty foods. These foods include krill, raw table shrimp, squid, clam and mussel. It is also a good idea to occasionally supplement with some type of herbivore diet containing spirulina and supplement with a sponge fortified formula specifically for Angelfish.
