Mono Angel

Key Characteristics: Appearance: Distinctive, highly compressed, diamond-shaped bodies with silvery scales, yellow-tinged fins, and two vertical black stripes across the head and front body. Habitat: They are euryhaline, meaning they thrive in brackish environments (mix of salt and fresh water) but prefer higher salinity, even full marine conditions, as adults. Behavior: Active, semi-aggressive swimmers that should be kept in groups (4–6+), as individuals may become timid or act aggressively towards smaller fish. Diet: Voracious omnivores, requiring a mix of flake/pellet food and vegetable matter, often feeding in the middle-to-top water column. Care Level: Best for intermediate/experienced aquarists due to their specialized need for brackish water and high water quality standards.
