Purple Tilefish

Hoplolatilus purpureus

Reef Safe

The Purple Tilefish is a striking marine fish known for its vibrant purple body and elegant shape, making it a visually captivating addition to reef aquariums. It is reef safe and thrives in well-established tanks with plenty of rockwork and deep sandy substrates for burrowing. The Purple Tilefish is relatively peaceful but can be shy, so it's best kept with non-aggressive tank mates in a calm environment. It requires stable water conditions and a secure habitat to feel comfortable, making it an ideal choice for aquarists with moderate experience looking to add a splash of color to their reef tank.
