Small and active, it brings personality and movement to the tank while remaining relatively peaceful when provided ample hiding spots. Its compact size and adaptability make it a popular choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.
Size: Typically grows up to 3 inches in length
Country of Origin: Native to the Red Sea
Latin Name: Pseudochromis fridmani

Orchid Dottybacks are carnivores that do well on a diet of high-quality frozen foods, mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and marine pellets. They are generally reef-safe with caution, as they may harass very small or slow-moving tank mates.
