{"product_id":"masked-swallowtail-angelfish","title":"Masked Swallowtail Angelfish (Japan)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Masked Swallowtail Angelfish (Genicanthus semifasciatus) is a peaceful species that is reef-safe, admired for its striking sexual dimorphism, swallowtail-shaped fins, and graceful swimming patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMales typically display vivid horizontal black striping across a pale body, with long trailing swallowtail extensions and bold coloration, while females\/juveniles are more subdued, usually pale yellow to white with minimal markings, lacking the bold stripes of males.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey reach about 7 inches in adult size and should be housed in aquariums of at least 125 gallons. Provide ample open swimming space, live rock for grazing and shelter, and hiding spots, along with stable water parameters (salinity ~1.020–1.025, temperature ~72–79°F, pH ~8.1–8.4). A secure lid is recommended since these angelfish are known jumpers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiet should consist of mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, copepods, enriched frozen foods, high-quality marine pellets, and some algae-based offerings. With proper care, the Masked Swallowtail Angelfish makes a standout addition to larger reef or community aquariums, admired for both its beauty and relatively peaceful temperament.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Aquatics Quarantine \u0026amp; Guarantee: All fish are checked by marine vets, given a formalin bath, and held for 14 days in copper-treated systems.
