Scientific name: Holacanthus ciliaris
Common name: Queen Angelfish
Size : Up to 18 inches
Feeding: Like many angels they do like sponge material. I was surprised to find just how much ours liked nori. I also feed a variety like Rod's food and mysid shrimp.
Reef compatibility: Likely to taste everything in the tank. If well fed it may ignore corals it doesn't find particularly tasty.
Captive care : A tough fish that will do well with most fish. A sizable aquarium is needed once the fish reaches maturity. Some say 3-400 gallons.
