Johnrandallia Nigrirostris
Common name : Barber fish , Blacknose Butterfly fish
Max length : 20 cm
Distribution : Gulf of California to Panama.
Aquarium size: 75 gal
temp: 20 - 27
Captive care: This is a very hardy aquarium species that will readily adapt to captive fare. It can be housed with a wide range of tankmates, including more belligerent spices, If kept in a more aggressive community setting, the tank should be reasonably large and the Barberfish should be one the first fish introduced. More than one of this fish can be housed in the same aquarium, but plenty of swimming space must be provided and simultaneous introduction is necessary to ensure that they will get along.This species is potentially destructive in the reef aquarium, although it is possible to keep it with more toxic soft corals.
