The Venustus Pygmy Angel (\u003cem\u003eCentropyge venusta\u003c\/em\u003e) is one of the most visually striking and sought-after dwarf angels in the hobby. Its deep sapphire-blue posterior, golden-orange face, and vivid purple-edged scales create a color combination that simply doesn't exist in most reef tanks. Availability is limited — this is not a species you'll find at your local chain store, and serious collectors know exactly how rare a quality specimen can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt medium size, this individual is well past the fragile juvenile stage and actively exploring its environment with the bold, curious personality pygmy angels are known for. Expect it to weave confidently through rockwork, claim a favorite cave, and develop a real presence in your saltwater aquarium. Rewarding to keep and endlessly entertaining to watch, the Venustus is a centerpiece-worthy addition that doesn't require a massive system to shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Venustus Pygmy Angel \/ Purple Masked Angel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium (approx. 2–2.5 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive — keep one per tank; may show aggression toward similarly shaped species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omnivore — spirulina, marine algae, mysis shrimp, high-quality prepared foods for angelspecies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e With caution — may nip at large-polyp stony corals and clam mantles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 72–78°F | pH 8.1–8.4 | SG 1.020–1.025 | dKH 8–12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery specimen we ship from The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, fully quarantined, and conditioned in our facility until it is eating confidently and showing zero signs of stress.
