Pseudochromis aldabraensis - T.B.
Pseudochromis aldabraensis, commonly known as the Orange dottyback, is a beautiful small fish from the dottyback family. Their body is yellow to reddish-orange and they've multiple horizontal electric blue stripes. A few on their face, a very prononounced stripe on their back, and also in the anal and dorsal fin all the way into the caudal fin, making them one of the most spectacular dottybacks to see!
They're usually not really aggressive fish, but they do make a terratory and will defend this fiercely, even if the intruder is much larger. So although this fish won't need a large tank if kept alone, make sure the tank is large enough if combined with other fish. The tank should have enough space to provide the other fishes room to swim while avoiding the dottybacks territory. These fish can best be kept alone or as a proven pair. They are carnivores, so make sure to feed them a varied diet of meaty live and frozen food combined with good quality flakes and pellets.
This fish is Tank Bred and will adapt to your aquarium easier compared to a wild caught specimen!
