Splendid Dottyback

What care do they need? Tank size? Best feeding, ect..

I was thinking of one for my 20 long untill I saw they get 8". I was also thinking about feeding one primarily on mysis, sound good?

What are your experiences with this fish?

Territorial. WIll probably be the boss of the tank. NOt neessarily agressive. Will eat shrimp. Active. Bold. Tough.

any size pseudochromis will dominate a 20g. If its on its own it could be ok.

Oh, the Splendens is one mean SOB. It ruled my 120 gallon, even chasing out some wrasses five times its size. Personally, as beautiful as it is, I'd avoid it unless you don't want another fish. Go for a captive bred Fridmani instead Very friend pseudo as far as this genus goes.
