ORA Brazilian Royal Gramma Captive Bred

This exceptionally rare Gramma species from Brazil differs from its common Caribbean relative with a visbly larger mouth and slightly smaller adult size, around 2.6 inches. Its vibrant coloration transition from violet to yellow is noticeably more gradual. It is no longer available as a wild collected import, meaning captive bred specimens are the only way to acquire this remarkable little reef fish.

Corals and larger invertebrates like shrimp are safe from this Basslet, though they may go after smaller shrimp once they reach their max size. Diet should include a variety of live or frozen mysis shrimp and vitamin enriched brine shrimp 1-2 times daily.
