Bellus Angel?

[hillbilly]

Does anyone know anything about the Bellus Angel? (Genicahthus Bellus) I saw a picture of a female, what a beautiful little fish! From what I understand, this fish is a plankton feeder, and is reef safe. I've never thought of any angel as reef safe. What do you think? Thanks!

G. bellus as with most Genicanthus spp. are as close to reef safe as you'll get with Angels. They tend to be fairly shy and are not really for high-light reef aquariums. They will accept shreds of meaty foods such as shrimp, squid, eel, etc.
btw they do tend to carpet surf.
