I bought this filefish for my 30-gallon tank and it has been thriving. It’s semi-aggressive but not overly so, and it’s active in the tank. The size is larger than expected, and it looks great in the display. Easy to maintain with proper water conditions.

The fish arrived healthy and has adapted well to the tank. It doesn’t eat much but stays active. I appreciate the clear size specification. It’s a good addition to a mid-sized reef tank, though not ideal for a pure reef setup.

This filefish is a striking addition to my aquarium. It grows to 4.5 inches and is active during the day. I keep it in a 30-gallon tank with other peaceful fish. It’s not aggressive, just semi-aggressive, which is manageable.
