Angels

Marine angelfish, belonging to the family Pomacanthidae, are among the most stunning and sought-after fish in tropical and subtropical oceans. Known for their vibrant colors and intricate patterns, these fish add a touch of elegance to coral reefs and rocky underwater landscapes. Marine angels are characterized by their laterally compressed bodies and elongated dorsal and anal fins, which give them a distinctive, graceful appearance. They exhibit a range of behaviors, from grazing on sponges and algae to forming complex social hierarchies. Some species are known for their symbiotic relationships with other reef inhabitants, including cleaner fish. Due to their striking appearance and fascinating behaviors, marine angelfish are popular in the aquarium trade, though they require specific care to thrive in captivity.
