SCIENTIFIC NAME - Pomacanthus Annularis

COMMON NAME - Blue Ring Angelfish (Annularis Angelfish)

SIZE - 11.8" (30 cm )

MIN. AQUARIUM SIZE - 220 US Gal. (379 L)

FOODS AND FEEDING - Ample vegetable matter, meaty fare, special Angelfish rations with marine sponges on occasion, live foods (Brine, Mysid shrimp) may be needed as well as, finely chopped seafood's (squid, scallop, shrimp) to induce feeding. Feed at least 3 times a day

REEF COMPATIBILITY - Will nip at sessile invertebrates such as stony and soft corals and clam mantles.

CAPTIVE CARE - Several suitable caves or hiding places are needed. Once acclimated it is an aggressive feeder and recognizes the aquarist as a source of food. May become a bully to other tank mates.
