  Bellus Angelfish - Genicanthus bellus

  This Bellus Angelfish is a mid-water planktivore that moves with rapid jerks using its pectoral fins, creating a stop/go swimming motion. It's the author's third Angelfish from this genus and does not appear to pick on corals.

  Japanese Swallowtail - Genicanthus melanospilos

  This female Japanese Swallowtail Angelfish is a planktivore that won't bother corals or clams. The male is white with dark vertical stripes (Zebra Angel). It adapted quickly to captivity, eating various foods within days, and serves as a dither fish that helps smaller fish come out in the open. Unfortunately, it was found dead on the tank room floor in November 2007.

  Lamarck's Angelfish - Genicanthus lamarck

  This female Lamarck's Angelfish is a reef-safe Angelfish that stays in small groups in shallow water. Males have a yellow forehead marking, and while less brightly colored than other angelfish, they won't nip at corals or clam mantels.
