More about Venustus angelfish

The Venustus angelfish (Centropyge venustus), also known as the Purple Mask Angelfish, is characterized by its vibrant blue body with a yellow to orange rear and a distinctive purple mask. It originates from the Western Pacific Ocean, including areas like Japan, the Philippines, and Indonesia. This dwarf angelfish is popular in the aquarium hobby due to its striking colors and relatively small size, though it requires a well-maintained tank with plenty of hiding spots.
