Special requirements

  • Nocturnal Habitat

    Requires plenty of rocky crevasses and hiding places to provide shelter from bright reef lighting; naturally most active at dusk.

  • Selective Predation

    Safe with corals and anemones, but will consume small fish and ornamental shrimp.

  • Initial Feeding

    May require live saltwater feeder shrimp or ghost shrimp to entice a feeding response when first introduced to the aquarium.
