🐠 Majestic Angelfish (Pomacanthus navarchus)
Marine Angelfish • Coral Grazer • Display Species • Indo-Pacific Beauty
 
📋 The Majestic Angelfish (Pomacanthus navarchus) is a medium-large marine angelfish celebrated for its brilliant royal blue and golden coloration, accented by deep orange borders and a distinctive blue facial mask. It’s one of the most visually stunning Pomacanthus species, offering a blend of elegance and vibrant contrast.
Juveniles begin life in deep blue with curved white lines, later developing the mature yellow midsection and bright blue girdling that define the adult form. This transformation makes the Majestic Angelfish one of the most visually rewarding species to raise from youth to adulthood.
Native to the Indo-Pacific, it thrives in spacious aquariums with ample live rock for grazing and shelter. Peaceful with caution, it coexists well with non-aggressive tankmates when provided sufficient territory. The Majestic Angelfish truly lives up to its name — a regal centerpiece in any advanced marine setup.
