Description
The Glass Eye Fish, scientifically known as Priacanthus cruentatus, is a strikingly colorful species known for its vibrant orange and red coloration complemented by large, prominent eyes. These fish are primarily found in the warm, shallow waters of the Caribbean and are commonly seen in coral reefs and rocky environments.
Glass Eye Fish are known for their peaceful demeanor, making them suitable for community tanks with other non-aggressive species. They thrive in environments that mimic their natural habitat, which includes plenty of hiding spots and open swimming areas.
Their diet in the wild consists of small invertebrates and algae, and in captivity, they will readily accept a varied diet of high-quality flakes, pellets, and frozen foods. It’s essential to provide them with a balanced diet to maintain their health and vibrancy.
