The Red Scooter Dragonet is a captivating and distinctive fish, showcasing a predominantly red body adorned with white patterns and a prominent dorsal fin resembling a sail. These dragonets grow up to 3 inches and require a minimum tank size of 29 gallons. Known for their peaceful nature, they may only interact with other dragonets. If you plan to house multiple Red Scooter Dragonets, a larger tank is advisable. They coexist well with other fish, corals, and invertebrates in reef aquariums. Due to their non-aggressive feeding habits, they should be paired with fish that won't outcompete them for food.
These dragonets thrive in tanks with ample live rock and sand, where they forage for small invertebrates. As carnivores, their diet should include meaty foods like mysis and brine shrimp, live feed shrimp, and small seafood pieces. A refugium can also provide a steady supply of live food for your Red Scooter Dragonet.
