Special requirements

  • Copper Sensitivity

    Extremely sensitive to copper treatments; exposure to levels near or above 0.15 ppm must be strictly avoided.

  • Reef Compatibility Caution

    Prone to nipping at stony and soft corals, sessile invertebrates, and clam mantles; monitor closely in reef settings.

  • Grazing Requirements

    Requires an established system with ample live rock to provide natural algae for constant grazing.

  • Social Introduction

    Should be the last fish introduced to a peaceful community to minimize territorial aggression.
