Yellow Angelfish
Yellow Angelfish commit fully to one color and do it well — a solid, saturated yellow from nose to tail with almost no interruption, one of the most eye-catching solid-color forms in the entire angelfish family. Like its more elaborately patterned relatives, it forages constantly across live rock for algae and detritus and carries a defensive spine tucked against the gill plate. A dramatic, simple, unmistakable centerpiece.
