The Pseudochromis leucorhynchus, also known as the Whitesnout Dottyback, is a vibrant and robust reef fish with a striking yellow body and a subtle white snout. This species is known for its inquisitive behavior, strong temperament, and brilliant colors that contrast beautifully in any reef aquarium.

These tank-bred (bred-from-scratch) specimens are sustainably bred in controlled conditions, making them better adapted to aquarium life than wild-caught specimens. They are less susceptible to stress, eat more readily, and don't contribute to the pressure on natural populations.

Features:

• Scientific name : Pseudochromis leucorhynchus
• Origin : Breeding (Tank Bred)
• Adult size : approx. 6–7 cm
• Behavior : Active, territorial towards conspecifics
• Diet : Carnivore – eats frozen and dry foods (such as mysis, artemia, and pellets)
• Aquarium : Minimum 100 litres, with sufficient hiding places between live rock

Details:

Thanks to their breeding origins, these fish are ideal for both novice and experienced marine aquarists who want a colorful, hardy addition to their reef without harming the environment.
