Description

The Blue Line Snapper is a vibrant and active species, easily recognized by its striking yellow body adorned with vivid horizontal blue lines. Known for its schooling behavior, this snapper is a captivating addition to large aquariums, especially when kept in groups that mimic their natural behavior in the wild.

While generally reef-compatible, caution should be exercised, as they may prey on small invertebrates and fish due to their carnivorous nature. The Blue Line Snapper thrives on a varied diet of meaty foods, including shrimp, fish, and other protein-rich options to meet their nutritional needs.

This species requires a spacious tank with plenty of swimming room and hiding spots. With its semi-aggressive temperament, it may show territorial behavior, particularly towards smaller tank mates. When properly housed, the Blue Line Snapper can become a vibrant centerpiece in marine displays, showcasing both beauty and natural schooling behavior.
