The Bicolor Dottyback is a vibrant reef fish, showcasing a striking combination of yellow and purple hues, making it a captivating addition to your marine aquarium. Despite its small size, this fish coexists well with larger species.

Reaching up to 3 inches, the Bicolor Dottyback thrives in tanks as small as 29 gallons. While they can be housed with other Dottybacks, they may exhibit territorial behavior and have been known to challenge larger fish. The front half of their body is a rich purple, transitioning to a bright yellow at the back.

Generally considered reef-safe, the Bicolor Dottyback typically leaves coral undisturbed but may occasionally nip at smaller invertebrates, particularly small shrimp. They are a great fit for most reef aquariums, though larger aggressive fish might pose a threat. Providing ample rock structures in the tank offers them hiding spots when needed. As carnivores, they require a diet rich in meaty foods like mysis shrimp and fresh seafood.
