The queen angelfish (Holacanthus ciliaris), is a species of marine angelfish found in the western Atlantic Ocean. It is an ocean floor warm-water species that lives in coral reefs. It is blue and yellow and has a distinctive spot or "crown" on its forehead. This crown distinguishes it from the similar, closely related, Bermuda blue angelfish, with which it overlaps in range and can interbreed. Adult queen angelfish primarily eat sponges. They form harems which one male and up to four females. They live within a territory where the females forage separately and are tended to by the male. Breeding occurs near a full moon. The transparent eggs are pelagic and float in the water, hatching after 15–20 hours. Juveniles have different coloration than adults and act as cleaner fish. The queen angelfish is popular in the aquarium trade. In 2010, the queen angelfish was assessed as least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as the wild population appeared to be stable.
