Behavior

Also called the Striped Dottyback. A hardy, bold little fish that defends its territory aggressively for its size. Peaceful with larger, unrelated fish but may harass small, docile species. Does well in reef tanks with plenty of caves and crevices.

Diet & Feeding

Carnivore. Feeds on small crustaceans and zooplankton. Offer frozen mysis, brine shrimp, and small carnivore pellets.

Cautions

Aggressive toward similarly sized or shy fish. Do not mix with other dottybacks in smaller systems.
