Bodianus Anthioides
Add Bodianus Hogfish to aquariums with plenty of stable rock work for hiding, a deep sand bed and lots of swim room. If frightened, they may burrow in the sand for protection. Hogfish are voracious eaters so provide a high-quality meaty diet multiple times daily. Hogfish can be a bit territorial but do tend to get along with most tank inhabitants. They may pick at small invertebrates and crustaceans. Most Hogfish are hermaphrodites, meaning they may turn from female to male at some point in their lives.
Lyretail Hogfish are also sometimes known as the Forktail Hogfish, show the front portion of the fish's body is brown to orange with the back portion being white with brown spots and a black spot on the front of its dorsal fin. Lyretail Hogfish can grow up to 18cm in length.
We recommend a minimum aquarium size of 400L or larger for this species.
