Aquarium Information

  • Care level: beginner
  • Temperament: peaceful
  • Diet: carnivore
  • Minimum tank size: 10 gallons
  • Compatibility: Generally compatible with other peaceful reef-safe fish. Can be kept in pairs or small groups if sufficient coral habitat is provided. Avoid aggressive tank mates.
  • Special requirements: Requires a well-established reef aquarium with plenty of branching SPS corals (e.g., Acropora) for shelter and perching. Good water quality is essential. They are prone to jumping, so a tight-fitting lid is recommended.
