Fast Facts

This is one of the smallest of the pygmies. It is dusky orange overall, with a dark spot near the pectoral fin. It is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands and is a durable aquarium inhabitant. Provide it with plenty of shelter sites. It feeds heavily on diatoms growing on the aquarium glass or décor, and live rock or a growth of filamentous algae will facilitate acclimation.
