Description: The Asfur Angelfish is a beautiful dark blue fish with a yellow crescent in the center of its body and a yellow caudal fin. This fish originates from the Red Sea. A Protein Skimmer and UV Sterilizer are highly recommended. Do not place this fish into a reef tank, as they will nip at fleshy invertebrates. Feeding a varied diet along with daily Vitamin C-soaked pellets will help prevent disease. Provide an ample amount of rockwork for hiding spaces. Do not mix with other large Pomacanthus sp. angelfish.
