Description: This is a beautiful, dwarf angelfish suitable for all saltwater aquaria. This fish originates from the Caribbean and is known for its deep, blue base color and bright, yellow face. They're popular for their hardiness and boisterous personality. They are curious, intelligent, and fast. The Argi Angelfish may nip at fleshy corals, so caution is required when introducing them to a reef tank. They can be quite aggressive towards conspecifics, so it is not recommended to keep more than one Centropyge sp. angel in the same aquarium. They can also be somewhat territorial when established.
