Beware of

Sensitive during transportation
This species is very sensitive during transportation and acclimatizing into the aquarium.

Frequent feeding
This fish requires feeding several times a day, especially when newly added. When the fish can find its natural food in the aquarium it requires less frequent feeding.

As a pair or in a shoal
This species is happiest as a pair or in a shoal. A shoal should consist of 1 male to 5 or more females. They can be aggressive towards each other, so in a small shoal there can be aggression towards one specimen, but this can disappear over time.

Docile
This species is very shy and docile, so one should be careful when keeping it with more aggressive fish.

Bred in captivity
This species can be bred in captivity, one can therefore consider asking your local fish store for a captive bred specimen.

Hiding amongst stony corals
This species likes to hide in and amongst the branches of corals, e.g. Acropora coral and will also do well if they can find other hiding places.

Shoals
These fish swim in shoals at the fish store or when newly introduced into the tank. Some aquarists report that after a while in the aquarium, their fish stop this behavior and can then become aggressive towards each other.
