Considered by many to be the most beautiful fish in the ocean, the queen angelfish gets its unique name by the dark-ringed crown on its forehead. The queen angelfish does not normally school, but instead it is believed they form a long term breeding pair. I often see them being aggresive towards any other queen angelfish approaching its mate.
