Select Variant
The False Personifer Angelfish is also known as the Bluemask Angelfish. It has a unique, almost blistered look to its body, which is usually black. Blue-green is the face, while males have a yellow speckled face. The forehead is covered in a smattering of yellow, and the caudal fin splits with a blue-green stripe. This species is unique in that the males are different from the females. The males are slightly larger than the females in this instance. You should have a 180-gallon or larger tank that holds large amounts of live rock. Personifer Angelfish, which is not a reef dweller, will eat stony corals (sedsile invertebrates), and clam mantles.
Spirulina and marine algae should be included in false personifer angelfish's diet, as well as high-quality angelfish preparations. Mysis or frozen shrimps are also recommended.
