Matt Randall –
The Sumatra Strong Color variant is vibrant and very active. I’ve kept it in a 75-gallon tank with other peaceful fish. It’s not aggressive and blends well with the environment. Only monitor closely for any signs of coral interaction.
Michael Harris –
Grew to 7 inches and looks stunning. The color is bold and stands out. I’m cautious about placing it near soft corals, but overall it’s a good addition to my intermediate reef setup.
Colin Carr –
Very satisfied with the fish. It’s peaceful and active, and the color is more intense than expected. I’ve maintained stable water parameters and it’s thriving.
