Description
The Maculosus Angelfish is a stunning and very colorful large angelfish. Maculosus Angelfish start life as nearly fully blue juveniles. As they age they start to develop white vertical stripes that will soon disappear. Mature adults have a mostly blue body with a strong yellow pattern in the center of their body. This shape sometimes resembles a map, hence their nickname.

Maculosus Angelfish reach a fully grown adult size of around 18 inches and need to be kept in tanks that are at least 240 gallons in size. Maculosus Angelfish are semi-aggressive fish and shouldn't be kept with other angels unless they are in a very large tank. Maculosus Angels will also nip at some hard corals, so if you want to add them to a reef tank, please proceed with caution.

Maculosus Angelfish are fairly hardy fish, and will be a good first angel for large fish only tanks. Maculosus Angels will thrive in a large tank with other peaceful to semi-aggressive fish. Maculosus Angelfish tend to do very well when they are housed with lots of live rock for them to pick at during the day.

Maculosus Angelfish are omnivores and require a diet that is rich in both meaty and green foods. Foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, spirulina, high quality flake and pellet foods, sponges, nori and marine algae and high quality frozen foods will help your Maculosus Angelfish grown and thrive.
