🔴 Red Hook – A Bold and Stunning Silver Dollar Species!

The Red Hook, a popular species of Silver Dollar fish, is known for its shimmering silver body and distinct red markings on the lower fins and tail. At 4-5 inches, these fish are eye-catching and bring a lively energy to larger aquariums. Red Hooks are schooling fish, best kept in groups, and make an excellent addition for aquarists looking to add a bold splash of color and activity to their tank. 🔴

Key Features:

  • Scientific Name: Myleus rubripinnis
  • Size at Maturity: Up to 8-10 inches
  • Tank Size: Minimum of 75 gallons
  • Temperament: Peaceful; best kept in groups of 3 or more
  • Diet: Omnivorous – flake foods, pellets, vegetable matter, live/frozen foods such as brine shrimp and bloodworms
  • Water Parameters: pH 5.5-7.5, temperature 72-82°F
  • Compatibility: Suitable for large community tanks with other peaceful or semi-aggressive fish

The Red Hook thrives in spacious aquariums with plenty of open swimming space. These fish are active and enjoy being part of a school, which helps them feel secure and display their natural behaviors. Their distinct red-tipped fins and silver body make them a beautiful addition to any setup, especially in larger tanks with a variety of similarly sized species. 🌿
