Majestic Blue Girdled Angelfish, Sub-Adult-Changing

The Majestic Blue Girdled Angel is a great fish for captivity; it complements its stunning looks with a not overly huge maximum size (rarely getting much bigger than eight to ten inches). They're good aquarium mates for most fish and have an even temperament, though they might be territorial with other Angelfish, especially ones of similar size. They've got good durability, but specimens can sometimes take a while to get adjusted to captive feeding. While they seem to mostly consume sponges and tunicates, a vital part of their diet is also the wide variety of small invertebrates living on and in those sponges. An important aspect of keeping any Pomacanthus species is a well-rounded diet. Here we feed them a variety frozen meaty food from Gamma, including their Vegetarian Diet product. They also get Nutramar's Algae and Color Boost formula in both Pellets and Shots. This offers a wide spectrum of nutrients and minerals that the Angels might otherwise lack, the Shots have the added benefit of being able to stick them to glass or rocks for the Angels to graze on! A word of caution in feeding is that internet abounds with advice to feed Angel's things like spinach and lettuce. Avoid all land-based plants when feeding your Magestic Angels. If you'd like to feed them something to pick on, we suggest Nutramar Ogo or Nori.
