The dragonet arrived healthy and active. It has adapted well to our 75-gallon tank. We appreciate its peaceful nature and vibrant colors. It’s a beautiful addition to our reef setup.

We’ve had this dragonet for three months now. It’s active and doesn’t seem to stress other fish. The tank conditions are stable, and it’s thriving in the reef environment.
Austin Hart –
Great choice for experienced reef keepers. The fish is colorful and calm. We noticed it feeds on small crustaceans and doesn’t show aggression toward other tank mates.
