Description: The Goldflake Angel is a vibrant yellow with black on the caudal, anal, and dorsal fins as an adult. They have blue lips and a black splotch running through the eye. They are considered a "holy grail" fish to many marine aquarists. A protein skimmer and UV sterilizer are highly recommended, as this fish is very susceptible to disease.  Do not mix with other large Apolemichthys sp. angelfish. This fish will appreciate a mixed, varied diet and plenty of rock work.
