Gramma dejongi X loreto (Hybrid)
Gramma dejongi X loreto, commonly known as Dejong's basslet hybrid, is the natural hybrid between G. dejongi and Gramma loreto. When young they look mostly like a dejongi, but once maturing the hybrids develop more purple compared to dejongi but not nearly as much as loreto. Usual the head is purple on top and underneath the mouth and on the face and gills spots of different sizes are seen, fading into the first part of the body.
These fish like the safety of a cave or other hiding spots around the shallow reefs and they can often be observed upside-down under a ledge. In nature a territory is formed in such caves with 1 to a few individuals. In a small aquarium it is best to only house one Gramma, but if the tank is large enough you can try to house a group. Best buy them small and in different sizes to have the smallest change of quibbling among the group.
These fish are planktivores, so make sure to feed them multiple times a day a varied diet of small meaty live and frozen foods like copepods and brine shrimp. Once they're settled in your aquarium they should usually start eating high quality flakes and pellets as well.
