Lemonpeel Dwarf Angelfish

Comments Off on Lemonpeel Dwarf Angelfish

Males are 5.5 in., while females are about 4 in. Be careful of tangs and other dwarf angelfish, but the Lemonpeel usually stays out of harm’s way. This fish is found throughout Pacific island chains.

The minimum tank size is 80 gal. The tank should contain many hiding places. The Lemonpeel does best in an aquarium with lots of algae and live rock growth. A pair or one male with two females can live peacefully if they are introduced to the tank at the same time. It may take a while for this fish to get used to commercial fish food; stimulate its appetite with macroalgae growth and diatoms.
