Known for it’s beautiful and vibrant orange stripes along it’s back the Orangeback Basslet ( Serranus Annulari) makes a great addition to your aquarium. These fish can get up to 3.5 inches in size and require at least a 30 gallon tank to strive. Orangeback Basslets enjoy larger tank mates and get along with fish too big to eat. However, only one of these orange striped beauties per tank please. They will become territorial with it’s same species.
Being a carnivore, these fish enjoy brine shrimp or various chopped meat like squid, clam, krill, etc. 1-2 times a day. Nestled in rocks or caves is a Orangeback Basslets favorite place to be. Since it is a deep water fish and used to dark caves, make sure to add plenty of hiding places in your aquarium to make him feel right at home.
