Step into the royal court of reef beauty with the Queen Angelfish—a Caribbean showstopper that’s the crown jewel of any saltwater display! At YoCamron’s Aquatics, our Queen Angels are more than just eye candy—they’re hand-selected, rigorously quarantined, and trained to thrive.

These stunning angels dazzle with an electrifying palette of neon blues, yellows, and purples, accented by a bold blue crown on their heads—a signature feature that gives this fish its royal name. Whether you’re creating a Caribbean biotope or looking for a breathtaking centerpiece, the Queen Angel delivers on all fronts.

But beauty is only half the story. Our Queen Angelfish undergo a 10-week quarantine protocol featuring prophylactic treatment for bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and internal infections using our proven regimen of nitrofurazone, kanamycin, formalin, copper, and dewormers like fenbendazole and levamisole. This ensures you receive a fish that’s not just stunning, but bulletproof.

Key Highlights:

• Pre-conditioned to aquarium life – eating NLS pellets, LRS frozen, and nori with gusto.
• Disease-free, parasite-free, and stress-hardened—ideal for long-term success.
• Versatile centerpiece for FOWLR or carefully planned mixed reefs (monitor for coral nipping).
• Responsive and bold—often becomes a true “pet fish” with personality!

Tank Tips:

Provide ample swimming space, caves, and rock structure for hiding and grazing. Not ideal with other large angelfish unless housed in exceptionally large systems (300+ gallons). Avoid housing with overly aggressive triggers or fast-dominating tangs unless introduced carefully.

This is not a fish you rush to buy—this is an investment in your tank’s legacy. Want to see if one’s ready for you? Message us now to reserve your Queen and receive updates during their quarantine process.
