Hi there! I am new to taking care a reef tank. So I have a male multicolor angelfish and I want to buy a female multicolor angelfish. How do I distinguish if it is female angelfish? Thank you in advance.

I have no clue, however, your local fish emporium (if expert enough) will know what they are selling.

I might be wrong, but I believe they are born unsexed and become females as adults, with the dominate one becoming male. Any young angel should be female. The only other way to sex them is by observing spawning.
