Information about the Moorish Idol:

They can be social fish, often schooling in small numbers although they are often encountered alone. Moorish Idols in the wild feed on sponges, tunicates (underwater saclike filter feeders) and other benthic invertebrates They are popular aquarium fish and are often found in large saltwater tanks, although they can be difficult to maintain, requiring a very large tank. Sometimes captive Moorish Idols will not eat and starve themselves, so they are not recommended for beginning aquarists.

Fine art illustration of a Moorish Idol (Aurelia aurita.) The illustration is available in black and white or color.

Artist’s notes:

The Moorish Idol was completed on 9.10.2011. I had spent the previous day trying to design and illustrate a tattoo of some kelp. And it didn’t work after many hours of trying. So I shelved it, and cranked out a drawing of a Moorish Idol instead – which I had meant to draw for some time. The drawing is based on a photo by Felicia McCaulley
