A bizarre little fish with a very peaceful nature. Keep with only peaceful tankmates and provide a fine substrate and rubble for it to hide in. Does excellent in a reef tank as it is not a threat to anything. |

The Curious Wormfish (Gunnelichthys curiosus) belongs to the family named Microdesmidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 5.0 inches in length, the Curious Wormfish is passive in nature and moderately hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Gunnelichthys curiosus should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places and a fine substrate.
