Lined Dartfish

The Lined Dartfish is a small, peaceful, and active fish species that can grow up to 3 inches in length. They are a hardy species that can be kept in most saltwater aquariums, but they do require a lot of hiding places and plenty of swimming space. They can be kept singly or in groups, but it is recommended to keep them with other peaceful fish species that will not compete for food.

Lined Dartfish are carnivorous and feed mainly on small crustaceans, plankton, and other small invertebrates. They can be fed a varied diet that includes frozen and live foods such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and small pieces of fish.

There are no visible differences between males and females.

Breeding Lined Dartfish in captivity is difficult, and not much is known about their breeding habits. In the wild, they form pairs and spawn in the open water.

Lined Dartfish are generally hardy and disease-resistant, but they are susceptible to the same diseases that affect other saltwater fish species. Some common diseases include bacterial infections, parasitic infections, and fungal infections.

Lined Dartfish are native to the western Pacific Ocean, specifically in the waters around Indonesia, the Philippines, and Japan.

Lined Dartfish are generally peaceful and do not pose a threat to other fish species in the aquarium. However, they can be intimidated by larger and more aggressive fish, which may cause stress and impact their overall health.

Proper acclimation is crucial for Lined Dartfish, as they are sensitive to sudden changes in water chemistry and temperature. They should be drip acclimated for at least an hour to ensure they adjust properly to their new environment.
