Saron rectirostris (Female) is a captivating species of cleaner shrimp prized for its vibrant colours and active behaviour in marine reef tanks. Available in various sizes, these invertebrates add both visual interest and functional cleaning benefits to your aquarium.
Care Level: Moderate care is recommended, as they require stable water parameters and a well-established tank.
Diet: Omnivorous scavengers, they thrive on a varied diet including meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood, alongside natural detritus and biofilm within the aquarium.
Compatibility: Generally peaceful, Saron rectirostris females coexist well with other non-aggressive tank mates. However, avoid housing with large predatory fish or aggressive invertebrates that may pose a threat.
Reef Safety: With caution. While they are mostly reef safe, monitor interactions with small or delicate sessile invertebrates to prevent potential harm.
Tank Requirements: A minimum tank size of 75 litres is advised to provide ample space and stable water conditions. Maintain moderate water flow and stable lighting to mimic their natural environment.
Placement: Provide plenty of live rock and hiding spaces to encourage natural behaviour and reduce stress.
