Why We Like It:

The Bellus Angel is a deepwater reef-safe angelfish with elegant, elongated fins and subtle but striking sexual dimorphism—males display bolder striping and colour. Peaceful and active, it's a rare example of a truly reef-compatible large angelfish. Best kept in pairs or harems in larger, mature tanks with plenty of swimming space. A graceful and unique addition to peaceful mixed reef systems.
