Regal Angelfish
Quick View$335.00Pygoplites diacanthus (Regal Angelfish)
The Regal Angelfish is one of the most iconic and sought-after marine angelfish, prized for its stunning coloration and generally peaceful temperament. While wild-caught Regal Angelfish are notoriously difficult to acclimate and feed, captive-bred specimens are far better suited for life in home aquariums.
These captive-bred Regals are already trained to accept prepared foods, including high-quality marine pellets and frozen offerings commonly available to hobbyists. This alone makes a significant difference in long-term success compared to their wild-caught counterparts.
Despite being easier to keep, the Regal Angelfish is still sensitive to unstable or fluctuating water parameters, immature aquariums, poor water quality, and overly aggressive or boisterous tankmates. This species performs best in a very mature, stable aquarium with extensive live rock for grazing, shelter, and security.
Few marine angelfish are considered completely reef safe, but the Regal Angelfish is widely regarded as one of the more reef-safe angelfish species. Wild individuals may occasionally pick at fleshy LPS corals, soft corals, and clam mantles, though they are generally safe with larger SPS colonies and some less palatable soft corals.
Reef keepers housing captive-bred Regal Angelfish report even better results, noting that these fish tend to be more reef safe than wild specimens, especially when well fed. Captive-bred individuals often show a clear preference for prepared foods over ornamental invertebrates and corals.
Best kept in:
-
Very mature, well-established reef aquariums
-
Stable systems with excellent water quality
-
Tanks with abundant rockwork and peaceful tankmates
The Regal Angelfish is an exceptional choice for experienced aquarists seeking a show-quality angelfish with improved captive success—when housed in the right environment and given proper care.

Large Juvenile Cortez Angelfish
Quick View$275.00Pomacanthus zonipectus (Cortez Angelfish)
The Cortez Angelfish is a unique and eye-catching species native to the Eastern Pacific. While wild-caught specimens can be challenging to acclimate, these captive-bred juveniles are far better suited for life in home aquariums, offering improved hardiness and long-term success.
As juveniles, Cortez Angelfish display brilliant yellow and electric blue striations running along the body, making them exceptionally striking at smaller sizes. As they mature, this vibrant juvenile pattern gradually transitions into a more subdued green-blue adult coloration, highlighted by a bold yellow stripe extending over the gill plate.
This species is not reef safe. Cortez Angelfish are known to pick at corals and clam mantles and are best kept in fish-only or FOWLR systems where their natural behaviors won’t pose a risk to ornamental invertebrates.
Best kept in:
-
Fish-only or FOWLR aquariums
-
Mature systems with stable water parameters
-
Tanks with ample swimming space and rockwork
The Cortez Angelfish is an excellent choice for aquarists seeking a distinctive, captive-bred Pomacanthus species with striking juvenile coloration and long-term aquarium adaptability.

Harlequin Tuskfish
Quick View$275.00Choerodon fasciatus (Harlequin Tuskfish)
The Harlequin Tuskfish is a striking and personality-filled member of the wrasse family that often becomes a fast favorite in larger marine aquariums. Known for their bold coloration and outgoing behavior, these fish are interactive, confident swimmers that bring constant movement and character to the tank.
The individuals currently available are juveniles, but this species grows to an adult size of up to 10 inches, making a large aquarium (150 gallons or more long-term) a requirement. They prefer systems with ample rockwork and rubble zones, which allow for natural foraging behavior and provide a sense of security.
These juveniles are bred in Bali, with parent stock originating from Australian lines, which are prized for their deeper, brighter red coloration compared to other regional variants.
The Harlequin Tuskfish is not totally reef safe. As it matures, it will prey on clean-up crew members, ornamental invertebrates, and potentially very small fish. Adults are typically semi-aggressive and are best housed in fish-only aquariums with similarly sized, robust tankmates.
As they mature, Harlequin Tuskfish develop their iconic appearance—bold vertical red-orange and white striping, subtle blue accents, and large, vibrant blue “tusk” teeth used to crush small invertebrates.
Best kept in:
-
Large fish-only aquariums (150G+ recommended)
-
Systems with substantial rockwork and rubble
-
Tanks with similarly sized, semi-aggressive tankmates
This species is an excellent choice for aquarists looking for a show-stopping centerpiece fish with intelligence, personality, and unmistakable presence—when given the space and setup it deserves.

Smokey LemonPeel Angelfish
Quick View$275.00The Smokey LemonPeel is a hybrid of the Lemonpeel and Half Black angelfish (Centropyge flavissima x Centropyge vroliki). Since they’re a hybrid they vary incredibly from specimen to specimen but they have the bright yellow coloration of the lemonpeel with the muted black tail of a half black. They all have varying levels of blue throughout the body and on the edges of fins.
They are a reef safe with caution species so be sure to keep them fed on a wide variety of feeds that include both meaty and herbaceous offerings. One food we definitely recommend for these guys is the Hikari’s spirulina enriched brine shrimp.
