The Blackstriped Angelfish is widespread throughout the tropical waters of the Indo-West Pacific. It feeds on plankton along coral reefs. Sexual dimorphism occurs in the species of angelfish, the male is larger with blackish pelvic fins and a yellow spot on the front head, whereas the smaller female has brighter (white) pelvic fins.
