If Kingi Angelfish are one of the holy grails of Pomacanthid lovers then the juvenileApolemichthys kingitakes that notion up a notch. Like other members of the genusApolemichthys,the Kingi or Tiger angelfish undergoes a dramatic transformation from the juvenile to the adult stage. We’ve gone out of our way to bring you coverage of largeadult tiger angelfishand we’ve even had access to someteeny tiny bandit angelfish. However the appearance of smallApolemichthys kingihas so far only been documented in a handful of less than spectacular photographs, until now.
Just yesterday we told you theamazing story of Pieter Uys他是在正确的时间在正确的地点和collected this perfect tiny juvenile Kingi angelfish. Mr. Uys has been working with his little treasured reef fish for more than two weeks during which time the juvenile angelfish has shaken minor signs of disease and quickly taken up to eating readily available aquarium foods.
Now the the little bumble bee-looking baby angelfish is settling in to his new aquarium home it is looking clear and bright and ready for the photographic spotlight. Thanks to Pieter’s photographic success and in sharing them with us, this post singlehandedly multiplies the known photographs of juvenile Kingi angelfish, which are likely the first of their kind of this size specimen in an aquarium. We hope you enjoy these incredible new pictures as much as we have and we wish Pieter the best with his newfound precious aquarium fish.
