More Details

The Scribbled Angelfish, Chaetodontoplus duboulayi, also known as Duboulay's Angelfish, is an incredibly rare angelfish species. It has a gorgeous blue/black body with blue edging on its fins, a bright yellow tail, and a thick yellow stripe below its head and over its mouth.

While the Scribbled Angel is often found in large public aquariums, they still make great fish in the home aquarium if given the proper tank set up.

Scribbled Angelfish are best kept:

in tanks of at least 175 gallons with plenty live rock hiding places
fed a varied omnivorous diet consisting of prepared meaty foods, spirulina, and natural algae
away from fleshy corals, sessile inverts, and clam mantles as they are prone to nip
housed with other peaceful fish and away from other Scribbled Angels (unless in very large tank)

Scribbled Angelfish are relatively rare in the marine trade and are not always for sale in the United States. This angel will certainly be the highlight of most aquariums and will live a long, healthy life when cared for by an experienced aquarist.
