Holacanthus Angelfish should be added to well established aquariums with plenty of room to swim. Plenty of rock work, caves, cracks and crevices should be provided for grazing and hiding. Holacanthus Angelfish may pick at sponge, tunicates, benthic organisms or sessile invertebrates. A diet of meaty and algae based foods should be provided.
