Moorish Idols are a peaceful and graceful addition to the well-established reef aquarium. As they are very social fish they do well with other peaceful tank-mates. They can grow up to 7 inches and will require an aquarium of at least 130 gallons with plenty of swimming room as well as places to forage. The aquarium will need to be a well-established one with plenty of algae and sponge to forage for between meals. They are peaceful but not considered reef safe since they may pick at corals, sponges and possible small inverts during their foraging. 

This fish is guaranteed for live arrival.
