Behavior: The Coral Beauty Angelfish is a hardy and active species known for its stunning coloration and relatively peaceful demeanor. These angelfish are generally non-aggressive and can coexist well with a variety of other marine species, although they may show territorial behavior towards other dwarf angelfish. They thrive in well-structured environments with plenty of hiding spots and live rock to explore.

Diet: Coral Beauty Angelfish are omnivores and thrive on a varied diet. They will accept high-quality flake food, pellets, and frozen foods such as brine shrimp and mysis shrimp. Additionally, they benefit from marine algae, spirulina, and finely chopped seafood. Providing a varied diet helps maintain their health and vibrant coloration.
