The Mono Argentus, also known as the Silver Moony, is a striking and graceful fish recognized for its silvery, laterally compressed body and bold black vertical bars. Its reflective, metallic sheen makes it a captivating addition to both marine and brackish aquariums. Active and schooling in nature, Mono Argentus adds dynamic movement and elegance to the mid to upper water column.
Size: Typically grows up to 6 inches in length
Country of Origin: Indo-Pacific region, including coastal waters of India, Southeast Asia, and northern Australia
Latin Name: Monodactylus argenteus
Care Level: Moderate – best kept in groups of 3 or more in spacious, well-maintained aquariums with stable salinity and water parameters
Mono Argentus are omnivores that feed on algae, small crustaceans, and planktonic foods. In captivity, they readily accept flake foods, pellets, mysis shrimp, and other marine preparations. They are reef safe with caution, as they generally ignore corals but may nip at very small invertebrates if stressed or underfed. Their schooling behavior and shimmering appearance make them a lively and attractive addition to community aquariums.
