Info

Like all Cirrhilabrus sensitive during transport and acclimation. After that not difficult to keep.
Expensive fish, but very beautyful colored and rarely to find. Do not keep as single. They will jump!

Occurs in small groups over lagoon patch reefs Benthopelagic over coral and rubble

Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
