The Harlequin Tusk will bring a lot of attention to your aquarium. Since Harlequins generally do not bother corals, they can be added to reef aquariums. On the other hand, they will not hesitate to eat a cleanup crew, so be prepared to replace snails, crabs and even urchins more frequently. They look mean (look at the fangs) but aren't really all that aggressive. In a large tank it will be just fine as a community fish. On the flip side, this is a fish that is likely to be bullied if added to aquariums with established aggressive fish. Juveniles are generally found singly in the wild, with adults forming distinct pairs during spawning, which happens at dusk. They reach a max size of about 10 to 11 inches. Reports of this fish getting up to 24 inches in captivity are erroneous. The Harlequin Tusk is found in the Western Pacific inhabiting seaward reefs up to 35 meters deep. They are extremely colorful with alternating vertical white and orange strips with blue outlining.
