| Fast Facts |
This gorgeous species readily acclimates to captivity and is a great community aquarium fish. Highly recommended for the medium to bold community aquarium. Once fully adjusted to the aquarium, this is a bold, curious species whose personality may be too much for overly passive fish, or fish introduced to the tank after it has become established. Only keep one individual per aquarium. Diana's Hogfish is very easy to feed and they will eat motile invertebrates rich as small crabs, etc. Juveniles are cleaners. |
