Multicolor angelfish
(Centropyge multicolor)

Descrição

The *Centropyge multicolor*, commonly known as the Multicolor Angelfish, is a captivating marine fish known for its vibrant blend of colors. It typically exhibits a pale peach-orange to yellow body, adorned with black speckles on a blue area behind the eyes. Its dorsal and anal fins are a striking blue-black, while the caudal fin is a vivid yellow. A distinctive silvery-white band runs horizontally from mid-body to the caudal fin, adding to its allure. In the wild, these angelfish are often found in harems and are considered shy. They are active swimmers and will gracefully explore the rockwork in your aquarium..

**Care Level**
The Multicolor Angelfish is considered to have a moderate care level, making it suitable for experienced aquarists. While generally semi-aggressive, they can be territorial, especially towards other dwarf angelfish or similarly shaped species. Provide ample hiding places to help mitigate aggression. They are generally compatible with peaceful tankmates.

**Tank Essentials**
A minimum tank size of 265-320 litres (70-85 gallons) is recommended for a single Multicolor Angelfish to ensure ample swimming space and numerous hiding spots among live rock. Maintain water parameters within a specific gravity of 1.020-1.025, pH of 8.1-8.4, and temperature between 22-28°C (72-82°F). They prefer subdued lighting conditions, mimicking their deep-water natural habitat.

**Diet**
As omnivores, Multicolor Angelfish thrive on a varied diet. Offer high-quality marine algae, Spirulina-enriched foods, and a mix of meaty options such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped krill or squid. Feed small amounts multiple times per day to support their active metabolism and overall health.
