The Centropyge Flavissima (Hybrid) is a striking dwarf angelfish known for its vibrant yellow coloration and hardy nature. This tank-bred hybrid is an excellent choice for marine aquarium enthusiasts seeking a colourful and active addition to their reef or fish-only setups.
Temperament and Compatibility: Generally semi-aggressive, this species can coexist with other peaceful fish but may show territorial behaviour towards conspecifics or similar species. It is recommended to introduce this angelfish into a well-established aquarium with plenty of hiding spaces to reduce stress and aggression.
Diet: Omnivorous by nature, the Centropyge Flavissima hybrid thrives on a varied diet including marine algae, spirulina, mysis shrimp, and specialised angelfish pellets. Regular feeding of vegetable matter is essential to maintain vibrant colouration and overall health.
Tank Requirements: A minimum tank size of 75 litres (approximately 20 gallons) is advised to provide ample swimming space and territory. The aquarium should be mature with stable water parameters, live rock for grazing, and moderate water flow.
Reef Compatibility: With caution. While generally considered reef safe, some individuals may nip at corals or sessile invertebrates. Monitoring behaviour closely is recommended when housed in reef environments.
Care Level: Moderate. Suitable for hobbyists with some experience in marine fish care, particularly those familiar with dwarf angelfish husbandry.
Origin: Tank-bred specimens, ensuring better acclimation and reduced impact on wild populations.
