Bicolor Angelfish: Striking Beauty for Your Marine Tank

The vibrant Bicolor Angelfish brings a splash of electric yellow and deep blue to your aquarium, making it a captivating focal point for experienced marine enthusiasts.

Overview

The Bicolor Angelfish (Centropyge bicolor) boasts a striking appearance with its vibrant yellow front half and tail sharply contrasted by a deep royal blue rear. A distinctive blue pattern often adorns its head. As a dwarf angelfish, it gracefully navigates through the aquarium, exhibiting an active and inquisitive nature while constantly exploring rockwork for grazing opportunities.

Care Level

This species requires moderate care, best suited for experienced marine aquarists. The Bicolor Angelfish is generally semi-aggressive, especially towards other dwarf angels or similar-bodied fish. It is not considered reliably reef-safe; caution is paramount as they may nip at stony and soft corals or clam mantles, making them ideal for FOWLR (fish-only-with-live-rock) aquariums.

Tank Essentials

A mature marine aquarium of at least 208 Litres (55 gallons) is the minimum, with 300 Litres (80 gallons) or more highly recommended to provide ample space and reduce aggression. Ensure your setup includes abundant live rock for grazing and numerous hiding places. Maintain stable water parameters: pH 8.1–8.4 and temperature 22–26°C.

Diet

The Bicolor Angelfish is an omnivore with a strong preference for algae. Offer a varied diet of high-quality marine angelfish preparations, spirulina-enriched flakes, and frozen foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood. Supplement with marine algae (e.g., Nori) and feed small amounts multiple times daily.
