Description
Centropyge angels have forever been a favorite with hobbyists due to their smaller adult size, colorations and hardiness. The Multicolor Angel is known for acclimating well and generally take a wide variety of foods very quickly, even segueing onto pelletized and flake foods in short order. These are among one of the least aggressive of the dwarf angelfish. The Multicolor Angel can be housed with others of the same species as long as all of them are added at once and the aquarium is large enough. It has an adult size of only about 3" and will do well in aquariums of at least 50 gallons. They sport multiple different colors (hence the name) of pale orange, yellow, blue, purple and silver.
- - Add to an aquarium with ample swimming room and rockwork for grazing/hiding
- - For continued health, provide a varied diet of marine meaty foods, angelfish-based foods and algae-based foods
- - Not Reef safe: may disturb mobile and sessile invertebrates
- - Has spines over their gills, use caution when catching to avoid entangling the angel in a net
- - Minimum tank size: 50 gallons
- - Approximate selling size: 2-3"

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
