The Midnight Angelfish, also known as the Black Nox Angelfish, is uniformly black over its entire body.
It requires at least a 30-gallon tank with lots of hiding places. The Midnight Angelfish should be the only dwarf angelfish in the tank. It is not a good reef dweller and may nip at soft coral polyps, clam mantles, and zoanthids.
The Midnight Angelfish is very difficult to breed in an aquarium, and has no distinguishable differences in color between male to female.
The diet of the Midnight Angelfish should include Spirulina, marine algae, mysid shrimp and other meaty fare, and plenty of live rock for grazing.
Like other dwarf angelfish, they are generally compatible with: Large Angelfish, Anglers & Frogfish, Anthias, Basslets, Batfish, Blennies, Boxfish, Butterflyfish, Cardinalfish, Clownfish, Damselfish, Filefish, Goatfish, Gobies, Grunts & Sweetlips, Hawkfish, Hogfish, Parrotfish, Pseudochromis, Puffers, Squirrelfish and Tangs & Surgeons.
