Common Name  -  Candy Stripe, Red Line or Elb's Angel

Scientific name  -  Centropyge eibli

Appearance  -  Silver grey body with vertical orange bars across the body and a black tail fin. Orange ring around the eye. Size ranges between 1 inch and 3 inches.

Location  -  Eastern Indian Ocean, Northwest Australia up into Indonesia.

Comments  -  Once past initial acclimation this fish is a usually a peaceful addition to the tank. 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. Tanks with live or decorative corals and rock are great. Position the rock openly so as to create many passages.
