Great addition to your reef tank. This colorful little one will spend most its day hovering about its cave or shell it picks as its home. The Orangeback Basslet has two distictive square shaped orange spots behind each eye. They are typically peaceful towards their tankmates, however do not mix with other basslets or dottybacks. |

The Orangeback Basslet (Serranus annularis) belongs to the family named Grammidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 3.1 inches in length, the Orangeback Basslet is generally passive in nature and hardy in stamina. Based on the particular specimen you acquire and its environment, the time when it is most active can fluctuate day or night, and will hang out or do best in the lower tank area. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Serranus annularis should not be housed in a tank less than 55 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.
