A length of 20 to 30 cm (7.9 to 11.8 in) is typical for the rest of the family. The smaller species are popular amongst aquarists, whereas the largest species are occasionally sought as a food fish; however, ciguatera poisoning has been reported as a result of eating marine angelfish. Angelfish vary in color and are very hardy fish.
The banded angelfish was first formally described as Holacanthus arcuatus in 1831 by the English naturalist John Edward Gray (1800–1875). [4] Its specific name, arcuatus, means “bowed” or “arched”, a reference to the “broad black arched band from the eye to the caudal end of the dorsal fin”.
As the fish grows this breaks up starting with the lips which turn bluish white and their caudal fins begin to darken to become black. This species, like all marine angelfish, is a sequential protogynous hermaphrodite and the younger sexually mature adults are all females. The black on the head reduces in extent.
Genicanthus watanabei, like the other angelfishes in the genus Genicanthus, shows sexual dichromatism, the males and females show differences in colour and pattern.The males are pale blue to bluish-grey on the upper third of their bodies with the lower two thirds having 8 horizontal, thin black stripes, the highest of these end in a patch of yellow colour.
