Centropyge angels have forever been a favorite with hobbyists due to their smaller adult size, colorations and hardiness. The Yellow Angel's small adult size of 4" means they can go into aquariums as small as 45 gallons when small, and they should be able to be perfectly happy in a 70-gallon tank at grow out. Provide a plenty of live rock for hiding and grazing. Like any other dwarf angel, they can be aggressive with other small angels and similarly shaped/colored fish. The Yellow Angel is not the best choice for a reef aquarium because they tend to nip on corals and clam mantles. Their diet should include both a variety of marine algae and frozen meaty foods. This angel is completely yellow and closely resembles the Lemonpeel Angel except they do not have the blue markings. The Yellow Angeld are found in the Indo- Pacific around lagoons and reef slopes either singly or in small harems up to 90 meters deep.
