I added this fish to my 100-gallon reef tank and it has been thriving. It’s active but not overly aggressive. The coloration is vibrant and it blends well with the live rock. Easy to care for as a beginner fish.
Dan Underwood –
The fish looks beautiful and has adapted well to the tank. I noticed it patrols the edges and occasionally interacts with other fish, but nothing disruptive. Good choice for a reef setup.
Keith Duncan –
Perfect for a beginner reef keeper. It’s hardy, colorful, and doesn’t cause stress to other inhabitants. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still active and healthy.
