Easy to care for and very active in the tank. It doesn’t bother other fish and stays calm around corals. Perfect for a beginner reef setup. Has been in my 10-gallon tank for three months and still looks healthy.

Arrived quickly and the fish was active right after placement. It’s peaceful and doesn’t chase smaller fish. I’m happy with the size and coloration. Slightly smaller than expected, but still fits well in my tank.

Great addition to my reef tank. It’s not too large and doesn’t compete for space. The orange spots stand out and it seems to enjoy the environment. No issues with compatibility so far.
