Smokey
Lace Non-wild alleles that interact to form this phenotype:
A smokey lace angelfish is a black lace with the addition of one smokey allele. It has the genotype: D/+ - Sm/+ The dark and the smokey alleles are co-dominant, with both traits appearing in the smokey lace phenotype. The distribution of color follows the pattern seen a smokey. The front (anterior) of the body is lighter than the rest of the body, and shows some of the brown coloration typical of a smokey, although darker than in a smokey. The rear (posterior) of the body and the dorsal fin, anal fin, and tail are dark, nearly black in coloration, with a distinct lace pattern showing in the fins and tail. As in a smokey, the demarcation between the lighter colored anterior of the body and the darker posterior part is an irregular vertical line approximately mid-way through the body. Approved by The Angelfish Society Standards Committee on March 11, 2007.
