The Clarion Angelfish will change in coloration as most Angels do. Juvenniles will typically be a bright yellow, as it matures the angel will become a very bold Orange. This one should not be the first one added to the tank as it may harass new comers. |

The Clarion Angelfish (Holacanthus clarionensis) is sometimes called an Orange Angelfish. It belongs to the family named Pomacanthidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 13.9 inches in length, the Clarion Angelfish is semi-aggressive in nature and 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. Holacanthus clarionensis 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 extra swimming area, plenty of hiding places, and a stable cave/sheltering ledge.
