Flame Angelfish
Centropyge loriculus
The adult inhabits coral-rich lagoons and outer reef slopes across parts of the tropical Pacific. It is an active, agile reef fish that grazes algae and detritus and also picks at small invertebrates on rock and coral surfaces. Adults are territorial and may chase or nip at rivals near favored shelter. A notable feature of dwarf angelfishes is their flexible social system, with sex change possible in some harem settings.
