I was told he was a "passer Angel" but everything I found on them online doesn't look like this one does... Either way, he's very colorful and pretty I think and thought I'd share :)  Sorry the picture isn't better quality... I'm stuck using the cell phone until my camera gets fixed

He doesn't seem to bother them so far... and if he decides to, well I guess I can handle that.  What little pieces I have of them were given to me anyway so not a huge loss.  They are pretty though, so I hope he still decides to leave them be

According to a book I have its also known as a King Angelfish.  (Holacanthus passer)

Max Length: 14.2"

Range: tropical Eastern Pacific

Food and Feeding; A sponge feeder, but can be switched to aquarium foods.....feed 3 times a day.

Reef Compatability: NOT Recommended. Will nip at sessile invertebrates, including stony and soft corals and tridacnid clams.

 

The images you are seeing online may be an adult.  It changes color and appearance as it gets older.  I hope this helps

It is a king angel aka passers angel.  It's a juvenile.  They will change color and paterns as they mature.

My tank is only a 55g, however I don't have this fish anymore.  It was gifted to me from a friend who is military and had to move.  It took me awhile, but I finally found a store that would trade out for it, thus I got my new clown and a koralia powerhead!  But he was pretty while I had him LOL thumbsup.gif
