Helfrichi Firefish
For the hobbyist looking for a very active, hardy and brightly colored fish, it's hard to beat Helfrichi Firefish. These reef safe fish are very skittish, and shouldn't be housed with aggressive species, or they will spend most of their time hiding. They are known to jump when startled, so be sure to house them in a covered aquarium. This small fish of 2" is full of personality and will make a great addition to smaller aquariums. Use caution if adding more than one, unless it is a very large aquarium. They will pick at algae within the aquarium, but that cannot be considered their diet. Provide them a mix of meaty foods, and they will generally will accept pelletized food after a few days. They can be territorial to other dartfish and bottom dwellers. They have a yellow head and their body is different shades of purple and white. This firefish has a vibrant pattern of yellow and purple outlining the fins.
