The Lemonpeel Angel was not a challenging fish to care for. He accepted food the instant he was inserted into my tank. He eats spirulina formula, formula one, formula two, mysis shrimp, and brine shrimp. He likes to swim around on his own in the tank. He is a bit aggressive towards passive fish like Dartfish and Clownfish, so care must be taken. My angel likes to nip at my Purple Firefish's tail and also my Clown's dorsal fin. He is in a tank with some invertebrates, which he never touches. He is also in a tank with some soft corals, one hard coral (hopefully soon to be more), and a couple of zooanthids. He doesn't pick at the soft coral and I haven't seen him go after my hard coral, but I have seen him pick at my zooanthids. In general, he is a pretty active angelfish. He is usually out swimming in the open during the day and will rest in the rockwork at night. It is a good beginner fish. Although it isn't recommended to keep more than one angelfish in a tank, it can be done in a very large tank. At my LFS, I see this angelfish, a Potter's angel, and a Venustus Angel in an 800 liter tank living harmoniously.
