Info

(Whitley, 1964)

Susceptibly: Very transport-sensitive and delicately during accustomisation. Then again with good feeding very dureable.
Social Behaviour: A swarmfish, which will stay close to his comrades in danger. Peaceful against other inhabitants.
Tank: Needs a well structured tank with hiding places. Well suitable for reef tanks.
This Apogon is rather rarely available. Seems to me particularly agressive against others of his kind, meaning he kills them.

Synonyms:
Apogon properupta (Whitley, 1964)
Apogon properuptus (Whitley, 1964)
Lovamia properupta Whitley, 1964
