What kind on angel is this???

[regina13]

I was searching around the internet for angelfish sites and found a chinese one that had these three pics and I could not find what they were called.. Does anyone know??

It is beautiful in it's simplicity.

Clipperton Angel...named presumably for the Clipperton Islands off the SW coast of Mexico...Very rare...CCampbell knows all about em, he will chime in i'm sure.

Thanks! I couldn't figure it out for the life of me, I was looking everywere...
I guess I didn't see it because it is rare...

Hey Regina -
That is definitely a Clipperton angel (Holacanthus Limbaughi). It is in fact only found around the Clipperton Islands off the coast of Mexico (Acapulco shores). It is in deed rare (as rare as the Clarion).
