| Fast Facts |
This is a great aquarium fish and one of our personal favorites! Bold, hardy, peaceful and easy to maintain, there's not much the Cream Angel doesn't have going for it! Hardier than most angels, the Cream Angel is white below and darker above, with black on the rear part of the body and on the and dorsal and anal fins. The tail is yellow ands there is a yellow spot over the gill cover. It readily acclimates to the captive lifestyle and generally mixes well in a peaceful community tank. |
