| Fast Facts | AVAILABILITY NOTE This is perhaps our most popular fish. They go so fast that you'll need jump on it immediately and SHIP EARLY IN THE WEEK to get one. Everybody wants this fish! Perhaps the most spectacular member of the genus, Cirrhilabrus lineatus is found only on the Great Barrier Reef to New Caledonia and Loyalty Islands. Found in isolated areas of outer reefs in deep water, collectors must venture beyond normal collection areas to find them. They are one of the sturdier Cirrhilabrus in the aquarium. All species of Cirrhilabrus are plankton feeders and have no interest in corals, clams, etc. and make ideal, peaceful choices for the reef aquarium. Cirrhilabrus lineatus is infrequently collected in small quantities. |
