Yellowbar Angelfish
Young with deep blue to black body and bright blue fins. Skinny electric blue and white bars throughout. Broad white or yellow bar appears mid-body with age, becoming yellow at adulthood. White/light blue tail (unlike Asfur Angelfish’s yellow tail). Captive-bred young in the 1″- 5″ range are sometimes available, but their adult size of 20″ makes the Yellowbar Angelfish unsuitable for the hobby.
