Have you always dreamed of a mixed angelfish aquarium but don't want to risk mixing them? DID YOU KNOW "large" and "dwarf"
angelfish species tend to mix surprisingly well with one another? Marine aquarium compatibility charts list these two different types of angelfish as "compatible," while mixing similar types should be approached "with caution" or "not at all." It's true, angelfish are aggressive toward conspecifics, but the two different types don't view each other as similar enough to be a threat. Our customers report that mixing captive bred angelfish is even easier than mixing wild caught angelfish because they're used to sharing their space with their siblings.
Dwarf Angelfish species examples: Colin's, Purple Mask, Multibar, Coral Beauty, Lemonpeel, and other Centropyge spp.
Large Angelfish species examples: Majestic, Goldflake, Regal, Genicanthus spp., Apolemichthys spp., and Pomacanthus spp.
As with any fish pairing that has the potential to become a problem, it's always wise to use an acclimation box to introduce them in safety, use aggression reducing techniques, and have a backup plan in case things don't work out.
If you have ever mixed angelfish species, please share your experiences!
