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 Lemonpeel's vibrant yellow coloration with blue outlining will make it stand out in just about any aquarium. To keep this angel happy, provide large amounts of live rock with some algal growth for hiding and grazing. The Lemon Peel Angel is not recommended for reef tanks because they tend to nip and graze on a variety of items. Like any other dwarf angel, they can be aggressive with other small angels and similarly shaped/colored fish. The Lemon Peel Angel's diet should be composed of a variety of items, including mysis, marine pellets or flake and some type of algae or sponge-based food. Ideally, feed at least twice per day. The Lemonpeel has an adult size of about 5", which makes it ideal for the beginner hobbyist and smaller aquariums.

  • - Add to an aquarium with ample swimming room and rockwork for grazing/hiding
  • - For continued health, provide a varied diet of marine meaty foods, angelfish-based foods and algae-based foods
  • - 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.
