Description

The Banded Sweetlips is an eye-catching fish known for its vibrant yellow and black striped pattern, making it a favorite among aquarists. This species is native to the coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific region and can be found swimming among the coral structures, where it feeds on small crustaceans, mollusks, and algae.

While generally peaceful, the Banded Sweetlips can exhibit semi-aggressive behavior, especially as it matures. Therefore, it is essential to provide adequate space in a larger tank to reduce territorial disputes with other fish. A well-planted or decorated aquarium with plenty of hiding spots will help create a suitable environment. The Banded Sweetlips can adapt to community tanks but may nip at smaller, more passive fish. As a result, careful selection of tank mates is advisable.
