The Pacific Pygmy Angelfish (Centropyge flavicauda), also known as the Dwarf Pygmy or Whitetail Pygmy Angel, is a small, vibrant species reaching about 2.5 inches in length. It features a deep blue to purple body with a bright white or pale yellow tail, making it a striking addition to nano and reef aquariums. Peaceful compared to many other angelfish, it generally coexists well with other small reef fish. The Pacific Pygmy Angel thrives in tanks with plenty of live rock for grazing and shelter, feeding on algae and small invertebrates. It may occasionally nip at soft or stony corals but is often considered one of the more reef-safe angelfish choices.
