Scribbled Angelfish (Chaetodontoplus duboulayi)

The Scribbled Angelfish, scientifically known as Chaetodontoplus duboulayi, is a captivating marine species that hails from the coral reefs of Australia. Known for its distinctive and intricate markings, this angelfish is aptly named due to the fascinating scribble-like patterns that adorn its body. The patterns typically consist of bold, dark lines and swirls against a contrasting lighter background, creating an eye-catching and visually stunning appearance.

In terms of coloration, the Scribbled Angelfish exhibits a predominantly yellow to orange base color with striking blue markings, particularly evident around the face, dorsal fin, and anal fin. Juveniles often display more vibrant hues and intricate patterns, gradually transforming as they mature into the more subdued yet equally captivating adult coloration.
