The **Regal Angelfish** is a breathtaking and vibrant large angelfish. Its body showcases a brilliant yellow adorned with bold white vertical stripes and a yellow tail. This fish will illuminate any aquarium and quickly become a centerpiece.

Reaching nearly 10 inches when fully grown, the **Regal Angelfish** requires a minimum of a 125-gallon tank to thrive. Known for its relatively calm nature, it should be introduced to the aquarium before more aggressive angelfish. With ample established rock, the **Regal Angelfish** will have hiding spots when startled and access to algae for grazing.

While not typically considered reef-safe due to its tendency to nip at both soft and hard corals, as well as some invertebrates like clams, many aquarists have successfully kept **Regal Angelfish** in reef tanks. Success largely depends on luck and the individual fish's personality.

Keeping a **Regal Angelfish** can be challenging, as they require a specialized diet including fresh seafood and sponges. Supplementing with algae, mysis shrimp, and Spirulina can promote growth and well-being.
