Belted Sandfish BS080601 WYSIWYG Size: M 3"

Serranus subligarius

The Belted Sandfish is a small, hardy marine fish prized for its unique appearance and peaceful temperament. This specimen displays the characteristic dark bands across its body that give the species its common name. At 3 inches, this medium-sized individual is well-suited for established reef and fish-only aquariums. Belted Sandfish are bottom-dwellers that spend much of their time sifting through substrate in search of small crustaceans and food particles. They require a fine sand bed and plenty of hiding spaces among rocks and corals. These fish are generally non-aggressive toward other fish but may consume very small invertebrates. This WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) specimen is photographed and inspected before shipment, ensuring you receive the exact fish shown. Ideal for aquarists with intermediate experience who can provide stable water conditions and appropriate tank mates.
