Adult Blueface Angelfish, Pomacanthus xanthometopon, also go by the name Yellowmask Angelfish. Like many members of this genus, adults and juveniles look different.
Juvenile Blueface Angels feature attractive dark bodies, that highlight their vibrant white and blue stripes. As the fish gets older, their colour changes from light to dark and the stripes fade away. Adult Blueface Angelfish are amazing. Dark centered scales cover their brilliant yellow bodies. As the name suggested, they have a sapphire blue mask over their yellow face. Their fins also sport a vivid blue fringe. The dorsal fin has a large blue eyespot towards the rear.
Large Angels are from the Pomacanthidae family. This is a group famous for their vivid colours. The name is Greek for, “cover” (poma) and “thorn” (akantha), which refers to the pair of strong spines on the gill cover.
Adult Blueface Angelfish, Pomacanthus xanthometopon, Ecology.
Blueface Angels’ occur in the Indo – Pacific Ocean, around the Maldives to Vanuatu. Their northern limit is the Yaeyama Islands, and their southern limit is Palau and Krosae in Micronesia.
In nature, Blueface Angels graze on sessile invertebrates and algae. As a result, this can make them unsuitable for marine tanks with coral, as they may nip. However, it may be possible to keep some carefully selected corals in the same tank. We highly recommend asking a member of staff about this.
