🐠 Firetail Dottyback (Pseudochromis flammicauda)
Marine Reef-Safe Nano Dottyback • Purple-Blue Body With Bright Orange Tail • Genuine Australian Rarity • Intermediate Marine Fish
 
📋 The Firetail Dottyback, also known as the Orangetail Dottyback, has a genuinely vivid purple-blue body that transitions into a bright orange-red tail — the genuine source of its common name.
Native to Australia, this species genuinely occasionally makes its way into the aquarium trade, making it a real rarity compared to more commonly available dottybacks.
This species is genuinely secretive, especially when first introduced, preferring to dart between rocky hiding places and crevices. With time, it will genuinely become bolder and develop into a good tank mate for a dottyback, though we want to be honest that it may still annoy smaller, more docile fish. It's fully reef safe and won't harm corals or sessile invertebrates. We want to note that this species is genuinely extremely fast-moving, and if it ever needs to be removed from a densely aquascaped reef tank, this can be a genuinely major task.
