The Coral Beauty Angelfish (Centropyge bispinosa) is a small, colorful marine fish that is popular among aquarists. It's known for its vibrant blue and orange coloration, and its generally peaceful temperament, making it a suitable choice for many saltwater aquariums. 

Key characteristics of the Coral Beauty Angelfish:

  • Appearance: They have a small, elongated oval body with rounded fins, featuring a purplish-blue head, face, and fins, and orange or yellow coloration on the body with blue lines or spots. 
  • Size: They typically grow to around 4 inches (10 cm) in length. 
  • Lifespan: They can live for about 12 years. 
  • Territoriality: They may be territorial towards other angelfish of the same shape, especially if kept in a smaller tank. 
  • Sex: They are hermaphroditic and can change sex during their lives. 
  • Diet: They are omnivores and should be fed a mix of meaty, algae-based, and angelfish-specific foods. 
  • Tank Conditions: They prefer a well-established aquarium with plenty of rock work, caves, and crevices for grazing and hiding. 
  • Handling: Care should be taken when handling them as they have cheek spines. 
  • Native habitat: They are native to the Indo-West and Central Pacific regions, including the Great Barrier Reef and surrounding areas. 

Important Considerations:

  • Tank Size:

    A larger tank (250 litres or more) is recommended, especially if keeping multiple Coral Beauty Angelfish. 

  • Tank Mates:

    While generally peaceful, they can be aggressive towards other fish, especially other angelfish. It's best to have only one per tank, or ensure a very large tank with plenty of hiding places if keeping multiples. 

  • Reef Compatibility:

    They are not considered good reef tank inhabitants as they may nip at corals. 

In summary, the Coral Beauty Angelfish is a visually appealing and relatively easy-to-care-for angelfish that can thrive in a well-maintained saltwater aquarium with appropriate tank conditions and tank mates
