Also called: Royal Angelfish
Scientific name: Pygoplites diacanthus
A Regal Angelfish - Shot around the Maldives
Regal Angefish can be found in offshore reefs throughout Southeast Asia. Like most Angelfish, they rely on boulders, caves and coral crevices for shelter, which is why it's so hard to get a good picture of them.
Please note: Identification of fish, corals, etc. is a tricky business. It's entirely possible that I've incorrectly identified a photo I've taken. If you spot an error, please contact me so I can correct it and improve this resource.
