An amazing fish to look at, but unfortunately, it spends most of it's life hiding. |

The Bluegirdled Angelfish (Pomacanthus navarchus) is sometimes called a Majestic Angelfish. It belongs to the family named Pomacanthidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 12.0 inches in length, the Bluegirdled 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. Pomacanthus navarchus should not be housed in a tank less than 100 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 and a stable cave/sheltering ledge.
