🐠 Bluefin Angelfish (Centropyge multispinis)
A Dusky Dark-Blue-to-Black Body With Electric-Blue Fin Edging • A Bold, Active Personality • Hardy Once Settled
 
📋 The Bluefin Angelfish, also known as the Dusky Angelfish or Many-Spined Angelfish, is a striking dwarf angelfish with a dusky dark-blue to near-black body, subtle darker vertical lines, and vivid electric-blue edging along the dorsal and anal fins.
It comes from the northern and western Indian Ocean, from East Africa and the Red Sea across to Sri Lanka, Sumatra, and Thailand, found alone, in pairs, or in small harems among rocky rubble and reef slopes. Every Bluefin Angelfish we ship is feeding well.
It's reef safe with caution: many specimens leave corals alone, but individuals can nip at stony and soft corals, clam mantles, feather dusters, and anemones, particularly if underfed. A well-fed fish with plenty of algae to graze significantly reduces this risk. It's a bold, active, and somewhat territorial species, so keep just one per tank unless the aquarium is very large (5 feet or longer), and it's best added as the last fish to an already-established system. It reaches up to 13cm, so plan on at least 265L, with a mature tank and ample algae essential.
