Lemonpeel Angelfish

Centropyge flavissima

Reef Safe with Caution

The Lemonpeel Angel, also known as the Lemonpeel Pygmy Angel, is a charming and vibrant fish prized for its stunning yellow coloration and endearing personality. Native to the reefs of the Indo-Pacific region, this angel adds a splash of brightness to any marine aquarium. While generally considered reef safe, caution is advised as it may nip at certain corals and clam mantles, particularly if not well-fed. Providing ample hiding spots and a varied diet rich in vegetable matter and meaty foods can help mitigate potential aggression. Despite its small size, the Lemonpeel Angel can be territorial, especially towards similar-looking fish or conspecifics. With proper care and attention, this beautiful angel can thrive in a well-maintained reef environment, delighting aquarists with its lively presence and striking appearance.
