A beautiful
yet rare species
in the trade. It
is available sporadically
reflecting
the fact that most
specimens brought
into the trade in
the UK are captive
bred. The only real
problems that may
occur with this species
is with very small
specimens and finding
a suitable
small particulate
food to give them
- Cyclopeeze works
very well.
This
is a member of the
genus
Elacatinus that does
not act as a cleaner
of other fish,
instead being found
in association
with sea urchins
in its natural
habitat.
