Common Name  -  Coral Beauty Angelfish

Scientific name  -  Centropyge bispinosa

Appearance  -  Dark purple body with vivid orange vertical bars through mid section. Usually rimmed with a bright blue outline. Size ranges between 1 inch and 3 inches.

Location  -  Widely distributed throughout the South Pacific

Comments  -  Very attractive fish. Once past initial acclimation this fish does quite well. As with all centropyge it will feed on flake foods but will do much better on a variety of small bite-size frozen foods, such as mysis shrimp. These fish enjoy having access to hiding places and are found throughout the reef from the shallow lagoons to the outer reef drop offs. Tanks with live or decorative rock are great. Position the rock openly so as to create many passages.
