Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

Centropyge angels have forever been a favorite with hobbyists due to their smaller adult size, colorations and hardiness. The Black Nox's small adult size of 4" means they can go into aquariums as small as 45 gallons when small, and they should be able to be perfectly happy in a 70-gallon tank at grow out. Provide a plenty of live rock for hiding and grazing. Like any other dwarf angel, they can be aggressive with other small angels and similarly shaped/colored fish. The Black Nox Angel is not the best choice for a reef aquarium because they tend to nip on corals and clam mantles. Their diet should include both a variety of marine algae and frozen meaty foods. This angel is completely black in color and commonly referred to as the Midnight Angel. The Black Nox are found in the Western Pacific around coral rich areas of lagoons and reef slopes either singly or in pairs up to 70 meters deep.

- Add to an aquarium with ample swimming room and rockwork for grazing/hiding

- Not Reef safe: may disturb mobile and sessile invertebrates
- Has spines over their gills, use caution when catching to avoid entangling the angel in a net
- Minimum tank size: 70 gallons
- Approximate selling size: 2-3"

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
