An extremely attractive dwarf angelfish. The bold blue outlines can really look nice under actinic lighting. The best tank set up for this one would be plenty of established live rock for hiding and grazing. Not recommended for the reef tank . |

The Bluefin Angelfish (Centropyge multispinis) is sometimes called a Dusky Dwarf Angelfish, a Multi-spined Angelfish, a Black Angelfish, or a Black and Blue Angelfish. It belongs to the family named Pomacanthidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 6.1 inches in length, the Bluefin Angelfish is semi-aggressive in nature and moderately hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Centropyge multispinis should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places.
