Yellow Dottyback (Pseudochromis fuscus)

This is a fish that balances beautiful, sunflower yellow coloration with an equally intense attitude. Confident around aggressive fish several times larger than itself, the ORA Yellow Dottyback will defend its rockwork home and do well in systems typically reserved for boisterous triggers, wrasses and puffers. While our broodstock doesn’t seem to have the same assertive personality as their reputation suggests, we do not recommend this species for peaceful aquariums. This very hardy dottyback is best housed in systems where only the strongest survive. Reaching a size of up to 4”, it will readily consume a wide range of food from pellets and flakes to frozen mysis and chopped shrimp.
