  • Lemonpeel Angelfish

    Centropyge flavissima (Lemonpeel Angelfish)

    The Lemonpeel Angelfish is one of the most underrated dwarf angelfish in the marine aquarium hobby. Known for its intense, electric-yellow coloration accented by subtle light-blue highlights around the eyes, gill plates, and sometimes the lips, this species adds instant brightness and contrast to any reef or fish-only system.

    Lemonpeel Angelfish remain relatively small, reaching a maximum size of about 5 inches, though most individuals stay slightly smaller in home aquariums. Like other dwarf angelfish, they benefit greatly from a thoughtful introduction—the use of an acclimation box is strongly recommended to reduce aggression and allow tankmates to adjust.

    This species is considered reef safe with caution. When provided a varied, nutrient-rich diet and regular feeding schedule, many individuals coexist well in reef aquariums. However, as with all Centropyge angels, coral-nipping behavior is possible and should be monitored closely, particularly with fleshy LPS and soft corals.

    Best kept in:

    • Established aquariums with stable water parameters

    • Systems with ample rockwork for grazing and shelter

    • Tanks where feeding is consistent and varied

    The Lemonpeel Angelfish is an excellent option for aquarists seeking bold color, manageable size, and classic dwarf angelfish personality, making it a standout addition when housed in the right environment.

    ORA Blue Mandarin

    ORA’s captive bred Mandarin Dragonets do NOT require live foods. Ours readily feed on pellet and frozen foods, making them an easier to keep and ethical alternative to difficult wild caught Mandarins! 

    Synchiropus splendidus – Mandarin Dragonets are inarguably one of the most beautiful species on earth, which makes them very popular aquarium fish. Our mandarins have a mix of blue-green and red coloration on the body and deep blue accents on the fins. The coloration may appear different in varying lighting spectrums.  These photos show what our mandarins typically look like.

    Unfortunately, the natural diet of wild caught mandarins is live food, which can be tedious and costly for many new hobbyists to provide, especially in immature or small tanks. Even if provided the best captive conditions, wild caught mandarins often succumb to wounds inflicted by spear guns or toxic cyanide used during the wild collection process. An overwhelming number of wild caught Mandarin Dragonets die in captivity for these reasons.

  • ORA Aiptasia Eating Filefish XL

    Acreichthys tomentosus – Aiptasia Eating Filefish aka Matted Filefish are an incredibly helpful species of filefish. They are called the Aiptasia Eating Filefish because of their propensity to eat nuisance anemones which plague most home aquariums like Aiptasia, majano anemones, and some types of hydroids. They do not require Aiptasia and will eat most aquarium foods. These interesting little filefish have the ability to change coloration and blend in with their surroundings rapidly, making it fun to watch them roam around the tank.

    This species is reef safe with caution, as some individuals may nip at soft corals, zoas, SPS polyps, fleshy LPS corals, clam mantles, and/or tiny ornamental shrimp. They do well in tanks 30 gallons or larger and are peaceful toward other fish species. They are territorial with their own kind, but can be kept in pairs. It’s easy to sex these fish as adults because the males have clear bristles on the caudal peduncle near the base of the tail, giving this fish its other common name of Bristletail Filefish.
