If you mean just Pomacanthus I must say, IMO the blue girdled is BEAUTIFUL.

1. Pomacanthus: Majestic (P. Navarchus)
2. Chaetodontoplus: Blue Line (C. Septentrionalis)
3. Pygoplites: Regal (P. Diacanthus)
4. Apolemichthys: Goldflake (A. Xanthopunctata)
5. Genicanthus: Female Bellus (G. Bellus)
6. Holacanthus: Not a big fan of this genus

How big do Regals usually grow in captivity? Do they often exceed 7-8”?

I don't have any angelfish, but I've always loved the way the emperor looks. If I had an appropriate tank that could house one I would definitely get one.

I like the emp however I like the blue face just a little bit more and hope to have a tank big enough for one at some point. I also love the Japanese swallowtails (G. semifasciatus) and they look gorgeous when you get a pair of females and one transitions!

If I had a chance to get Genicanthus semicinctus or G.spinus and had the money to put in a 1000 gallon tank for them then I would, but that's too much to dream of. By the way, Genicanthus semifasciatus is absolutely stunning.
