radial firefish

pterois radiata

Moderate This fish is considered a moderately difficult one. Read well into how to care for this fish and which tank mates it needs, so you can take good care of it. Place this fish in a tank of at least 500 liter to make it at home. Keep your salinity within 1.021-1.025 (at 25°C) and temperature between 23-27°C. The Radial Firefish likes to eat life food, mysis, shrimp and small fish.

This fish is reefsafe with caution. There is a risk involved in introducing it to your corals. Read about the experiences of other hobbyists and make up your own mind about taking that risk. Don't say we didn't warn you!

We consider the Radial Firefish to be a semi-aggressive fish. Be careful when introducing it to your less (or more) aggressive fish. It is, however, not a fish that will be the terror of your tank.
