Coral Beauty different?

[bambootikigirl]

So I saw this coral beauty on LiveAquarias Divers Den the other day and it looks rather different than the normal pictures I see of them.

Is this because its Biota bred? Could it be a juvenile and haven't colored up yet? Lighting perhaps?

I really love how it's a lot less purple and more of a mulberry pink color. Could I see some photos of peoples corals beauties to compare or if someone has this specific Biota bred fish show me?

Coral Beauty angelfish can range in color from really blue to more orange. Pictures for reference.

So the only way I could get similar coloration as the screenshot would be either see one in person at an LFS or LiveAquaria? I was hoping maybe there was maybe a name variation I could request.

they come from different regions of the world and vary in shape and colour slightly.

Yeah I just read the fine print and apparently the screenshotted angel came from Palauan Biota. I may have to look into seeing if they can get another angelfish like that cuz it's stunning.
