Rock Blackfish Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Rock Blackfish in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: expert
• Temperament: semi-aggressive
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 750L (200 gallons)
• Compatibility: Best kept in a species-specific tank or with other large, robust, and semi-aggressive marine fish. Not suitable for reef tanks due to its herbivorous diet and potential to graze on corals and invertebrates.
• Special requirements: Requires a large, well-filtered aquarium with ample rockwork for shelter and grazing surfaces. A strong current is beneficial. Diet should consist primarily of marine algae, spirulina, and high-quality omnivore pellets, supplemented with occasional meaty foods.
