The Hawaiian Turkeyfish is a Dwarf Lionfish with brown to reddish vertical irregular bands running down the body. The dorsal and pectoral fins are shaded brown to red with white fringed tips to disguise the sharp venomous spines.This rarity is found on coral and rocky areas in the beautiful waters of hawaii.
The Hawaiian Turkeyfish is a very reserved Lionfish spending most of the time on rock faces and ledges. The Hawaiian Dwarf Turkeyfish has exceptional vision for its size and is capable of fast sprints on occasion; its venomous dorsal fins really can pack a powerful punch. Keep lighting lower than normal. May eat tiny fish and smaller ornamental invertebrates.
Lionfish will eat all meaty foods and it’s good to vary their diet, however it is best to train them to eat vitamin enriched foods such as Ocean Nutrition to maintain good health.
