Japanese swallowtail
 

I'm looking for info on keeping these fish. Been reading all the general fish supplier pages. Has anybody on Canreef kept this angelfish?

I have had one in my mixed reef tank for almost 2 years. No problems to report.
Is in the tank (180 gal) with a Coral beauty and a couple large tangs. As well as as some others.

Are we talking about Genicanthus melanospilos or Genicanthus semifasciatus? Both of those sometime are being referred to as Japanese swallowtail. G. melanospilos is a little easy to adapt to aquarium life, G.semifasciatus harder because of where they are collected. But both will accept prepared food after adapting to aquarium. Both are friendly to other fish except to their own species. Genicanthus is usually reef safe.

Thats what I was hoping to hear.George it's a female Genicanthus m.

Mine is also Genicanthus melanospilos female.

I have a female Japanese swallowtail. Great fish and very easy to keep. Mine is in with a flame angel as well
