Care notes
Males feature brilliant orange-red body with blue face and vivid orange caudal fin — the 'flametail'. One of the most visually striking stuartgranti variants.
Check the whole aquarium. Tank size alone does not establish compatibility. Confirm adult size, water overlap, social grouping, territory, diet, and the individual animals before stocking.
