Potters angel, any advice?

[Ben1]

I just picked up one from my LFS. I read on fishbase.org it feeds on algea, what would you recommend? I also read there it only gets 4" is this correct? I have it in my 75 with a yellow tang and a A. Melanopus. I am just looking for any one with personal exp. with this fish. Thanks In Advance, Ben

Although it gets a little larger than most, its behavior/diet is pretty similar to the other Centropyges. I actually think it seems a little more "easy going" than something like a flame angel or rock beauty. Beautiful fish, easy to care for. Good choice. Feed (as you would any fish) a very varied diet, can't go wrong with that. There are dozens of frozen foods that offer good nutrition, and an increasing number of good dry foods.

Careful as they are not all 100% reef-safe.

I have kept one for several years and agree with James's comments.
I notice that it plays in an air diffuser in the corner of the tank from time to time which could mean that it like highly oxygenated water.
