Easy to care for and fits well in my 30-gallon reef tank. The fish is active and colorful, and it doesn’t bother the corals. Great for beginners.
Isaac Berry –
It’s a nice addition to my tank. I noticed it’s slightly more active during the day and seems to prefer hiding in crevices. No issues with other fish so far.

Perfect for a beginner reef setup. It’s peaceful most of the time and stays in one area. Looks vibrant and adds a nice touch to the tank.
