{"product_id":"townsend-angelfish","title":"Townsend Angelfish","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"70\" data-end=\"560\"\u003eThe Townsend Angelfish is a stunning and rare hybrid, naturally occurring where the ranges of the French and Gray Angelfish overlap in the Western Atlantic. Combining the best features of both parent species, it displays a striking mix of iridescent blue highlights, golden edges, and a smoky gray body that deepens in color as it matures. Juveniles often feature the vibrant yellow and blue striping of the French Angelfish before gradually transitioning to their elegant adult form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"562\" data-end=\"953\"\u003eThis angel is highly intelligent and often becomes the centerpiece of a large display tank. It’s known for its inquisitive, bold behavior—frequently inspecting rockwork and interacting with its keeper. Townsend Angels are grazers, spending much of their time picking at live rock for sponges and algae, so they require a mature tank with plenty of established rock and open swimming space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"955\" data-end=\"1315\"\u003eWhile stunning, this species can be territorial, especially toward other large angelfish. It’s best suited for a fish-only system or a FOWLR (Fish Only With Live Rock) setup, as it may nip at corals and sessile invertebrates. Provide a diet rich in marine algae, sponge-based foods, and meaty fare to maintain vibrant coloration and long-term health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pomacanthus paru × Pomacanthus arcuatus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-Aggressive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omnivore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reef Safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Western Atlantic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Adult Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 180 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Discover Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":53076433010977,"sku":"TT-6756-S","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":53076433043745,"sku":"TT-6756-M","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large","offer_id":53076433076513,"sku":"TT-6756-L","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4044\/4961\/files\/fish-photo.jpg?v=1784989372","url":"https:\/\/discoveraquaticsshop.com\/products\/townsend-angelfish","provider":"Discover Aquatics Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
