The fish is vibrant and active in a 60-gallon tank. It stays calm and doesn’t bother other fish. The black spots stand out well in the water. Easy to care for once the tank is stable.
John Coleman –
Looks beautiful in the tank. It’s peaceful and doesn’t chase other fish. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still healthy. Just make sure the tank is at least 60 gallons.

Great addition to my marine setup. The coloration is striking and it’s very active during the day. No issues with aggression or compatibility with other fish.
