Reef Safe

Bring a touch of enchantment to your reef aquarium with the captivating Ruby Red Dragonet. With its vivid crimson hues and intricate finnage, this fish adds a splash of vibrant color and elegance to marine environments. Despite its stunning appearance, the Ruby Red Dragonet is not only a feast for the eyes but also a beneficial addition to your reef ecosystem. As voracious eaters of small crustaceans and pests like bristle worms, they aid in controlling populations of unwanted critters, contributing to the overall health of your aquarium. These peaceful and relatively shy fish thrive in well-established reef tanks with plenty of live rock and sandy substrate, providing them with ample hiding spots and foraging areas. While they may initially be selective eaters, offering a varied diet consisting of live or frozen foods typically encourages feeding. With their striking beauty and beneficial behaviors, Ruby Red Dragonets are prized additions for reef enthusiasts seeking both aesthetic appeal and ecological balance in their aquariums.
