Oliver Mackay –
Easy to set up and very active in the tank. It doesn’t stress other fish and stays calm. Perfect for a beginner reef setup. Grew to about 4 inches in 6 months. Very happy with the purchase.
Tim White –
Arrived healthy and stayed active. The colors are vibrant and it blends well with the coral. Needs a 50-gallon tank, which I already had. Would recommend to new reef keepers.
Adrian Bower –
Peaceful and not aggressive. It’s a great addition to a small reef tank. I’ve had it for 8 months and it’s still thriving. No issues with compatibility with other fish.
