Keeping Parore in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

  • Care level: advanced
  • Temperament: semi-aggressive
  • Diet: herbivore
  • Minimum tank size: 500 gallons
  • Compatibility: Best kept in a species-specific tank or with other large, robust, non-aggressive marine fish that can tolerate similar water parameters. Avoid keeping with smaller, timid species or those that require pristine, low-nutrient water.
  • Special requirements: Requires a large tank with ample swimming space and plenty of rocky structures for shelter and grazing. A strong filtration system is essential due to their herbivorous diet and waste production. High water flow is beneficial. They are prone to stress in small or barren environments. Diet must be predominantly algal matter, supplemented with high-quality marine greens.
