A rarer dwarf angel that can be a challenge to get feeding.

The Golden angel is a rare and incredibly beautiful fish. It is overall an intense deep blood-orange color with fiery orange stripes across the entire body. The eyes are surrounded by dark rings. Males and females are visually identical.

The Golden angel can grow to be up to 4 inches long and needs an aquarium of at least 70 gallons. It is more difficult than most other dwarf angelfish to keep, and is recommended to be the only angelfish in the aquarium. It acclimates to captivity better if it is one of the first fish added to an established aquarium, and is kept with only peaceful tank mates.

The Golden angelfish may nip on many types of corals, clam mantles, and sponges. They do not typically bother other types of invertebrates. They feel most secure when there is plenty of live rock to hide in, as well as open space for swimming. Diet should include plenty of marine algae and Spirulina, Sponge matter, frozen Mysis shrimp, half shell clams, and other high quality meaty items. It should be fed 2-3 times a day.
