Some information about the Emperor Angelfish from my views and some from the internet.
Scientific name: (Pomacanthus imperator)
Minimum tank size: 100-180 gallons is the range I am seeing online, I would say 180 gallons because this fish can get large.
Food: Mine loves all food, I have a mix of different Pellets that I feed mid day and a mix of frozen at night.
Care/Compatibility: So far seems hardy and gets alone with Tangs, Chromis, Anthias, and more. I have not had many issue with the Angel getting along with other Angels. I have this Angel with 3 others Angels. The Angel does sometimes chase other fish but never does any harm. This Angel could be doing well with other fish because he is in a 375 with lots of Rocks and many caves.
Reef Safe: So far I have not had any issues. I have mainly SPS corals, I do have a tube anemone and the Angel has not bothered it at all. He has been a great Aiptasia eater. I would not recommend it with soft corals
Other: Juvenile Emperor Angelfish are black with circular white and blue stripes starting at the tail. Once it grows and changes to an adult it is mainly blue with yellow stripes with white around the face. This is just one beautiful fish!!
