The Barber Fish is a striking fish with a slender body, dark snout, and bright yellow fins. It is peaceful and reef safe, making it an excellent addition to fish-only with rock tanks or reef aquariums. It feeds on small crustaceans, worms, and other meaty foods, and helps control pests like bristle worms. Requires moderate care and a varied diet to thrive. Great for intermediate aquarists looking for a colorful, useful cleanup fish.
