Blue Hippo Tang. The Blue Hippo Tang
is also referred to as the Regal Tang, Hepatus Tang, and
Blue Surgeonfish. It is a highly prized, beautiful
and long-lived. Like most tangs and surgeons, it is easy
to recognize because of the oval body shape, deep blue
color, and bold markings. This species requires a
70 gallon or larger aquarium with a number of hiding
places and plenty of room to swim. It is more
susceptible to lateral line disease, fin erosion, Ich
and other skin parasites than many other fish.
Although Tangs will eat meaty foods along with the other
fish in the aquarium, it is important that they are
offered plenty of marine based seaweed and algae. |
|
Pajama Cardinal Angelfish. The
Spotted Cardinalfish has a greenish-yellow face, bright
orange eyes, and a silver-based body dressed with a bold
black scalar margin and a posterior dotted with orange
polka-dots. It has a peaceful nature that lets it
blend perfectly into any community saltwater aquarium.
This species should be kept in small schools in
aquariums of at least 30 gallons. It is a slow and
methodical swimmer and should be housed with peaceful
tankmates and offered a variety of hiding places among
rockwork or plants. It requires a well
balanced diet of meaty foods such as feeder shrimp,
flake foods, pellet foods, marine flesh, bloodworms, and
depending on its size, live feeder fish. |
|
Powder Blue Tang. The Powder Blue
Tang, also known as the Powder Blue Surgeonfish, has an
oval body shape with with several varying shades of blue accented by yellow and white. Bright yellow highlights the dorsal and pectoral fins, and striking blue-black markings outline the face and tail. A 100 gallon or larger aquarium is necessary to provide plenty of swimming room. It is extremely aggressive towards other Tangs, especially those similar in form and color, and should be the only one in the tank except in very large systems. Although Tangs will eat meaty foods along with the other fish in the aquarium, it is important that they are offered plenty of marine based seaweed and algae. |

Coral Beauty Angelfish. Very common
on the Great Barrier Reef, the Coral Beauty Angelfish is
also known as the Twospined or Dusky Angelfish.
The body and head are a deep royal blue, highlighted
with an iridescent orange to yellow. The Coral
Beauty Angelfish is one of the easiest angels to care
for. It requires a 30 gallon or larger tank with
lots of hiding places and live rock for grazing. Not a
good reef dweller, the Coral Beauty Angelfish is prone
to nip at stony and soft corals. The diet of the
Coral Beauty Angelfish should consist of Spirulina,
marine algae, high-quality angelfish preparations, mysid
or frozen shrimp, and other quality meaty foods. |
Green Chromis. Excellent value on a
very hardy fish that's great for beginners. Best
if kept long term in small schools of six or more.
Great for conditioning new tanks. These peaceful fish
add striking color to any tank and their presence
encourages shy fish out of hiding. Lives many
years with good water quality. |
Yellow Tail Damselfish. The Yellowtail Damselfish is extremely hardy and gorgeously colored. In fact, Chrysiptera parasema is considered by many aquarists, both beginning and advanced, to be the ultimate damselfish. This is partly because its jewel-blue body is contrasted by an energizing yellow tail. This color combination looks stunning against any backdrop of corals and live rock,
but what pleases aquarists most is that the Yellowtail Damsel is less aggressive and does not need as large of an aquarium as other Damsels. |

Bangai Cardinal. The Bangai Cardinal
is highly sought after for its ease of care, attractive
color pattern and distinctively long and elegant fins.
The Banggai Cardinalfish or Longfin Cardinalfish, is
metallic silver highlighted by rich black stripes and
white, celestial spots on the body and fins. A 30
gallon or larger aquarium with cave-like rockwork and
peaceful tank mates is ideal for this slow and
methodical swimmer, although it should not be kept in
large groups. The Bangai Cardinal is relatively
easy to breed in the aquarium setting and should be fed
a well balanced diet of meaty foods such as feeder
shrimp, marine flesh, bloodworms, and depending on its
size, live feeder fish. |
Scooter Blenny. The Scooter Blenny
is also known as Scooter Dragonet or Ocellated Dragonet,
has a mottled brown and white body with red highlights.
A 30 gallon or larger reef aquarium that has live sand
substrate, docile inhabitants, and lots of live rock
makes the ideal aquarium for the Scooter Blenny.
More than one of its species may be kept; if so, it is
best to introduce them all to the tank at the same time.
The ratio should be 2 or 3 females per male. A 55
gallon or larger aquarium is required if more than one
male is to be kept. The Scooter Blenny may be a
difficult fish to keep due to its feeding habits as it
will sift through the sand for food. |
Blue Mandarin Blenny. The head and body of the Blue Mandarin, also known as the Striped Mandarinfish or Blue Mandarinfish, are a mazelike combination of blue, orange, and green. Males may be distinguished from females by their more-elongated first dorsal spine. It is extremely popular with aquarists because of its unusual beauty. It should be kept in a well-established 30 gallon or larger aquarium with live rock, live sand, and plenty of hiding places. It is moderately hardy in reef aquariums
and is not overly aggressive towards other fish, except for conspecifics. It feeds on a variety of vitamin-enriched live brine shrimp, live black worms, and natural prey on live rock and live sand. |

Red Tail Firefish. Also known as the Dartfish,
this is a sweet-tempered fish with lots of personality.
Will try to jump out of aquarium, especially if
stressed. Provide several hiding places where it
can duck into when feeling threatened. Great for
small reef systems. |
Blue Chromis. The Blue Green Reef
Chromis is easy to care for, beautiful, and peaceful.
In fact, Chromis viridis is one of the preferred marine
reef fish among aquarists, regardless of their
experience level. This member of the Pomacentridae
family is most recognizable by its gorgeous light blue
dorsal side that slowly fades into a majestic pale green
belly. The Blue Green Reef Chromis is desirable
not only for its beauty, but also for its peaceful
demeanor (despite its designation as a true damselfish)
and ability to be kept with almost all other community
fish, invertebrates, and corals. |
Yellow Watchman Goby. The Yellow
Watchman Goby is also known as the Yellow Watchman
Prawn, or Yellow Shrimp Goby. The head and body
are yellow-orange with bright blue spots on the head and
fins. This species likes to peek out from behind rocks
and have been known to form symbiotic relationships with
pistol shrimp. It requires a 10 gallon or larger
aquarium with plenty of loose coral rubble, ample
swimming room, and a sand bottom for burrowing. It
may try to jump out of the aquarium, therefore, a
tight-fitting lid is required to prevent escape.
The Yellow Prawn Goby diet should include a variety of
mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, table shrimp, and frozen
preparations for carnivores. |
