Description

The Porkfish is a striking saltwater fish known for its vibrant yellow color and black vertical stripes running across its eyes and down its body. Native to the Western Atlantic, this peaceful fish is ideal for larger tanks and can coexist well with other non-aggressive species. Though it generally does well in a community setup, its tendency to nibble on invertebrates means it may not be the best choice for reef aquariums. This carnivorous species thrives on a diet of meaty foods like shrimp, worms, and small crustaceans. Its bright appearance makes it a visually appealing addition to marine aquariums.
