The Yellowfin Pygmy Angelfish, Centropyge flavipectoralis, has an dark brown body featuring a yellow pectoral fin and blue highlights along the fins. Due to aggression towards other Angelfish they are best kept singly but will do well with other fish.

They are not reef safe, as they will nip at soft and stony polyp corals, sessile invertebrates and clam mantles. Diet should include a variety of spirulina, marine algae, seaweed, high quality angelfish preparations, mysis and brine shrimp, 3 times daily.
