Easy to care for and very peaceful in my 10-gallon tank. It blends well with other fish and doesn’t cause any stress. The yellow stripes are vibrant and stand out nicely. Perfect for beginners.

I’ve had this fish for three months now and it’s still active and healthy. It doesn’t eat much and doesn’t bother other tank mates. A good choice for a small reef setup.

The fish arrived quickly and looks exactly as described. It’s calm and stays near the back of the tank. I’m happy with the beginner-friendly nature and peaceful behavior.
