Longfin Dottyback / Pseudochromis polynemus

skinz78-albums-r2r-fish-database-dottybacks-picture16566-scan0012.jpg


SCIENTIFIC NAME - Pseudochromis polynemus

COMMON NAME - Longfin Dottyback

SIZE - 4.7" (12 cm)

MIN. AQUARIUM SIZE - 30 US Gal. (114 L)

FOODS AND FEEDING - Varied diet of marine meaty foods live, fresh, or frozen. Feed daily.

REEF COMPATIBILITY - Will eat tubeworms and shrimps.

CAPTIVE CARE - Not as aggressive as other Dottybacks, but care should be taken when housing with less aggressive tank mates or smaller species. A rocky aquascape with plenty of hiding places is a plus, do not house with other Dottybacks, keep only one per tank unless a proven pair can be obtained.
