I added this fish to my 30-gallon reef tank after researching compatibility. It has been active and healthy for three months. I monitor it closely due to its semi-aggressive nature, but it hasn’t caused any issues with other inhabitants. Good for intermediate reef keepers.
Brian Hodges –
The fish arrived quickly and looks healthy. It’s not overly aggressive, but it does defend its space. I keep it in a well-planted tank with plenty of hiding spots. Works well in a balanced reef setup.
Adrian Ball –
I expected more activity, but it’s calm and doesn’t seem to interact much with other fish. The size range matches the description, and it’s stable in the tank. Not the most dynamic species, but it fits in a moderate-sized setup.
