Soft Colouration & Streamlined Elegance
The female Genicanthus bellus features a slender, elongated body adorned with delicate silver, white, and pale orange tones. Fine horizontal lines and subtle blue accents enhance its refined appearance, especially under high-quality reef lighting. Native to deeper reef slopes of the Indo-Pacific, this angelfish brings an air of calm sophistication to any saltwater aquarium.
Perfectly Suited for Reef Aquariums
Unlike many angelfish, Genicanthus bellus is fully reef-safe, making it a prized addition to coral-rich systems. It thrives in peaceful, mature reef tanks with plenty of open swimming space and a diet of marine pellets, algae, and frozen foods. Females are social and do well in pairs or small harems when introduced carefully, offering natural behaviour and lively interaction without aggression.
Ideal for Intermediate to Advanced Aquarists
While not overly demanding, the Genicanthus bellus does best in stable environments with consistent water parameters and moderate water flow. It’s a fantastic choice for aquarists seeking a low-risk angelfish species that adds colour, movement, and elegance without threatening delicate corals or invertebrates.
