Sunrise Dottybacks are another brightly colored basslet found in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. Our broodstock originates from Egyptian waters and produce the bluest Sunrise Dottybacks available in the industry.
They have a dorsal yellow stripe from the snout to the tail, and have a blue body with white ventral area. They are found living as solitary individuals around coral heads and rock rubble on the bottom.
Generally, they are moderately aggressive in aquariums and can be kept with gobies, blennies, and other small reef fish. Plenty of rocky hiding places should be provided. Feeding is simple, as they will accept most prepared frozen or dry aquarium foods.
