The Debelius angelfish is one of the rarest and most elusive angelfish species because it has only been known from very deep waters of the isolated island of Mauritius. Over the weekend we got some earth-shattering news about this species that not only was it discovered in Madagascar, but a specimen was collected at the very modest depth of 15 meters, or just under 50 feet!
This very exciting news came from Blue Ocean SARL who is also responsible for makinggem tangs, tiger angelfish and Hemi flasher wrassesa much more common sight in the global aquarium scene. Like thetiger angelsbefore it, this new collection singlehandedly expands the known natural range of theCentropyge debelius差不多1000公里。但是，更令人兴奋的是，在马达加斯加发现的Debelius Anselfish的发现将已知的可能栖息地从仅仅是毛里求斯和聚会的小岛扩展到可能是马达加斯加东部的整个海岸线。
之前ourse的前面lves, there is always the possibility that this sole Debelius angelfish represents a lonely specimen that waifed from the Indian Ocean islands it is best known from, like theNahackyi angelfishthat was spotted in Hawaii. However this doesn’t explain how or why this Debelius angelfish was discovered and collected in shallow water that is barely a quarter of its usual depth range.
当Blue Ocean Sarl首次在马达加斯加设立时，他们花了一些时间来学习和发现在哪里找到稳定的宝石唐斯和老虎天使，以及最近的地方性Hemi Flasher Wrasses。因此，希望随着更多探索，我们很快就会看到更多的标本very rare Debelius angelfishcoming from Madagascar, and who knows what else might be discovered in the region in the future.
