QUICK STATS
The Neon Dottyback, has yellows and reds on the body with blue stripes that run along the top and in the fins.
A 30 gallon or larger aquarium with hiding places should be provided. It should be housed with moderately aggressive larger fish. It may eat ornamental shrimp, but makes an excellent predator of bristle worms in the reef aquarium.
The diet should consist of meaty foods including brine shrimp and prepared frozen foods.

New additions
I got 2 fish from peterbloem on one of the forums I’m on. Both for only 15 euro’s, which didn’t seem much to me. The idea was to have them for my crab-tank, but my wife liked them both so much she wanted them in the RSM, something I don’t have problems with…it’s better for the fish as well.
Here a picture of both of them in quarantine before releasing them.
