Centropyge ferrugata

Centropyge ferrugata, commonly known as the Rusty angelfish, is a small angelfish. It looks a bit like a spotted version of the more well-known C. loricula. It has an orange base which fades to brown on the back. And is covered in black spots. Around the dorsal and anal fin they’ve a broad blue black striped rim.

Like all other angelfish it's hermphroditic and the most dominant fish will turn into a male when there is no other male around. These fish are quite peaceful but be careful combining them with fish a lot smaller or larger and other (dwarf)angelfishes. Although dwarf angels are certainly more likely to be reef safe compared to their larger relatives and thus seen more often in reef tank, they're always a risk. C. ferrugata is considered relatively reef safe and friendly, but some individuals might harass certain corals (usually LPS or clams) to the point they can't be combined anymore. Keeping them well fed seems to reduce the risk, so make sure to feed them a proper varied diet of algae and meaty foods to make them really happy!
