Species: Heniochus acuminatus
Origin: Philippines
Max Size: ~9 inches
Care & Habitat:
• Minimum Tank Size: 150 gallons
• Temperature: 72–78°F (22–26°C)
• pH: 8.1–8.4
• Salinity: 1.020–1.026
• Hardness: 8–12 dKH
• Environment: Plenty of open swimming space ideally with live rock.
Diet:
The heniochus acuminatus naturally forage for small invertebrates, sponge and corals. Offer a variety of frozen foods, as well as nori daily.
Temperament & Compatibility:
Will nip at corals if given the possibility, best for a fish only system. I have seen them kept in reefs, but it will require frequent feeding so they do not get the urge to eat corals.
