This species will spend most of the time out in the open, but never far from a safe hiding place. As opposed to most other cardinalfish, is less of a threat to smaller fish. |

The Orangestriped Cardinalfish (Apogon cyanosoma) belongs to the family named Apogonidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 3.0 inches in length, the Orangestriped Cardinalfish is passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out or do best in the middle tank area. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Apogon cyanosoma 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 keep 3 or more.
