Pictured above is a Blue Striped Pipefish (Doryrhamphus excisus). These pipefish are very colorful and instantly add personality to any aquarium. They do best when there’s plenty of live food to feed on, and may starve if copious amounts are not present. Additionally, provide these fish with a low flow environment. Their slender bodies and general lack of fins make them poor swimmers that usually just hover in a small area. Too much flow will cause them to get pushed into the rock work and might damage the fish.
