Orbiculate Batfish

Platax Orbicularis

What is the maximum size?
They can reach 57cm.

Where does it come from?
The Orbiculate Batfish comes from the Indo Pacific.

Is it Reef Compatible?
Will harm some corals and anemones.

What should I feed it?
Best to feed a varied diet of frozen foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, algae and live food. New introductions are prone to catching parasitical infections so feed with garlic enriched foods, for example frozen brine shrimp and garlic. Use a UV steriliser if possible to help reduce the chance of infections which are hard to clear up in reef systems.

How many can I keep?
Can be kept on its own or more than one per tank can be kept.

How compatible is it with other fish?
A peaceful fish, do not keep with fish that may nip at its fins
