White Tail Pygmy Angelfish are a golden orange brown colour with black flecks on the upper half of the body and subtle vivid blue markings on the outside edges of the dorsal, anal, pelvic, and caudal fins. A black spot accents the body just above the pectoral fins.
Although the White Tail Pygmy Angel will do well in a “community” type setup, like all Pygmy Angelfish, they can be aggressive and intolerant of their own species or any other fish of similar color or shape so it advisable to be wary of this.
The diet of the White Tail Pygmy Angel should include Spirulina, high-quality angelfish preparations, mysis or frozen shrimp, and other high-quality meaty items.
