Joe Oliver –
Easy to care for and very active in the tank. It doesn’t harm the corals and adds a nice color contrast. Perfect for a small reef setup. Stays calm around other fish and adapts well to the tank environment.
Maria Paterson –
Grew to about 5 inches and remains healthy. It’s semi-aggressive but only shows that behavior when feeding. Works well in a 30-gallon tank with other peaceful fish.
Alexander Ball –
Arrived quickly and looks vibrant. The fish is active and curious, and it doesn’t seem to stress other tank mates. Great choice for a beginner reef keeper.
