Stunning Bellus Swallowtail Angelfish (Genicanthus bellus) — Reef-Safe Showpiece
Bring elegance and grace to your reef display with the Bellus Swallowtail Angelfish, one of the rare angelfish truly compatible with corals. This species offers spectacular sexually distinct coloration: females with bold black bands on silvery-blue, and males with softly glowing gold and blue stripes. In a healthy environment with plentiful feeding, they are peaceful, midwater swimmers that shy away from corals, making them ideal for reef enthusiasts wanting both beauty and compatibility.
Perfect for larger systems (125 gal and up), with moderate to strong flow and open swimming space, the Bellus will reward you with years of serene movement and vibrant color. If you’re after a centerpiece angel that plays well with your corals — this is it
