The **Tibicen Angelfish** stands out as one of the largest among dwarf angelfish, reaching up to 8 inches in length. This impressive fish is a captivating addition to any aquarium. Due to its potential size, a minimum tank size of 55 gallons is recommended. To prevent territorial behavior, avoid housing the **Tibicen Angelfish** with similar species in smaller tanks. Providing ample rock formations will support its well-being by offering algae for grazing and hiding spots.
The **Tibicen Angelfish** features a deep midnight blue body accented with vibrant yellow fins on its lower half, and a prominent white spot in the center. Both males and females share the same coloration. It is advised not to keep the **Tibicen Angelfish** in a reef tank, as it may nip at corals and invertebrates.

A diet rich in Spirulina, mysis shrimp, and algae is essential for their health.
