Kevin Berry –
Received the Queensland Dottyback in good condition. It’s active and colorful, and has adapted well to my 30-gallon tank. The fish is semi-aggressive but doesn’t cause issues with other peaceful species. Easy to care for and a great addition to a reef setup.
Robert Hemmings –
The dottyback is vibrant and stays active in the tank. I’ve kept it with a few corals and it hasn’t damaged any. It’s a bit territorial during feeding, but that’s expected for a semi-aggressive species. Overall, a satisfying purchase.
