Freshwater tropical aquarium fish - Bodianus Mesothorax
LIVE FISH Bodianus mesothorax The young are brown-black with dark patches on the fins that disappear in the bicolor adult. The harpfish swims continuously, and it must therefore be given a large space with room to move about, although the aquarium must also provide it with shelters. The adults do not tolerate members of their own species. Size: 20 cm. Bodianus rufus There is barely any difference between the young and the adults, which are somewhat aggressive. This Spanish hogfish has carnivorous tastes. Size: 25 cm. Lienardella fasciata The Harlequin tusk wrasse, aggressive even toward bigger fish, likes eating mollusks, worms, and crustaceans, and it needs shelters. Size: 15 cm. Thalassoma lunare The lunar wrasse is aggressive towards other members of its own species. It is easy to acclimatize, although it requires large open spaces in which it can swim freely. Size: 20 cm. MURENIDAE (MURENAS) These usually nocturnal fish stalk small prey. They camouflage themselves in rocks and crevices, with only their head sticking out. An aquarist must be careful, because a murena’s bite can be dangerous. Echidna nebulosa The snowflake murena is an attractive species which sometimes makes an appearance by day, especially at mealtimes. It can live for quite a long time. Its tail can also be very long, so plan on a big tank. Size: 90 cm.
