Maximum Length: Attaining a length of approximately 15-16 inches, this species is found at depths up to 120 feet.

Origin: Tropical Atlantic

Minimum tank size: 135 Gallon

Behavior: This species is a hardy aquarium fish, but given the size it will attain, it should only be kept in very large aquariums. This species tends to be non-aggressive towards other aquarium fish, although from time to time it may show aggression towards other angelfish. 

Feeding and diet: In the wild, this species mainly feeds on sponge, thus the successful aquarist should attempt to provide a reasonable source of this food. 

Reef Compatibility: This species is not recommended for the marine reef aquarium because it will pick at and eat a variety of invertebrates.

Cautions: This angel gets very large and will fight with other adults if there is a shortage of territory.
