SCIENTIFIC NAME - Chaetodontoplus mesoleucus

COMMON NAME - Vermiculated Angelfish (Singapore Angelfish)

SIZE - 6.7" (17 CM )

FOODS AND FEEDING - Frozen preparations with Spiulina and algae, Mysid shrimp, fresh or frozen shrimp finely shaved. Feed 3 times a day.

REEF COMPATIBILITY - Moderate risk to large polyped stony corals. May eat soft coral polyps and nip at Zoanthids.
