Centropyge heraldi

Centropyge heraldi, commonly known as the Yellow angelfish, is a medium-sized and angelfish. They've the typical Centropyge body shape, and are entirely bright with only some very faint orangish stripes and scribbles over the head and in the unpaired fins. Specimens with a large black area in the dorsal fin are often sold as C. woodheadi, but are most likely a variant of heraldi.

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. heraldi are generally considered to be relatively reef safe, but can always nip/eat LPS, soft corals and clam mantles, so keep this in mind before introducing them into a reef tank. 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!
