Overview
What to know before you buy.
A dwarf angelfish banded in orange over pale grey. Reef keeping is a calculated risk, as with all Centropyge — most individuals eventually sample corals and clams.
Care guide
Keeping Eibli Angelfish healthy in a South African setup.
Tank setup
A minimum 250L aquarium suits Eibli Angelfish. Use robust décor and sight breaks so each fish can hold its own space.
Water parameters
Keep pH 8.1–8.4 and 24–27°C. Stable parameters matter more than chasing perfect numbers; acclimate new arrivals slowly.
Feeding
Omnivore — algae, meaty frozen foods. Feed small amounts it clears in a couple of minutes, and vary the diet.
Behaviour
Semi-aggressive dwarf angel. Watch it at feeding time and at lights-out to see its real temperament in your tank.
Tankmates
Choose robust tankmates of similar size, and nothing small enough to be eaten. Add Eibli Angelfish last so territories reset.
Breeding
Breeding success with Eibli Angelfish depends on the line and water chemistry; ask your shop about proven pairs.
