The Watanabe's Angelfish, also known as Watanabe's Lyretail Angelfish, is one of the few angelfish displaying sexual dimorphism; the female is iridescent pale blue with a dark dorsal fin and dark outlines to the dorsal and anal fins, while the male is iridescent pale blue with long horizontal dark stripes on the lower half and anal fin and one horizontal orange stripe toward the caudal fin. They are best housed as a male-female pair in a 125 gallon or larger tank and are ideal for deep-water reef aquariums; use a dimly-lit tank for acclimation, provide multiple hiding places and live rock for grazing, and never keep two males together; feed meaty foods, spirulina, marine algae, and high-quality angelfish preparations.
