The Blue Dot Jawfish, also known as the Bluespotted Jawfish, was discovered in the Tropical Eastern Atlantic in 1991 by Allen and Robertson.
Its head and body are orange with different shaped flourescent blue spots covering all but the fins. As a matter of fact, the neon blue dots actually glow under the aquarium actinic lights!
Considered to be the most beautiful and desirable of the jawfish.
The Bluespot jawfish will require peaceful tank mates and good water quality.
It will fight with it's own genus and tends to jump when stressed, so we recommend a cover or canopy on top.
Recommended Tank size: 20 gallon
Feeding and Diet:
Zooplankton feeder, provide a varied diet that includes frozen preparations for carnivores such as mysis shrimp.
Reef Compatibility:
Excellent reef fish. This species will not harm shrimp or invertebrates.
