Its name comes from its warm, tobacco-brown coloration accented with lighter mottling and faint striping, giving it a natural, earthy look that blends perfectly with live rock and reef environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNative to Caribbean reefs, the Tobacco Basslet enjoys a well-structured aquarium with plenty of rockwork, caves, and ledges where it can perch and feel secure. It’s a peaceful species that does well in community reef tanks alongside other calm fish. Rather than constantly swimming in the open, this basslet prefers to hover near its favorite hiding spot, making it a great fish for hobbyists who enjoy observing natural reef behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tobacco Basslet is reef safe and won’t bother corals or most invertebrates. It adapts readily to aquarium life and accepts a variety of frozen foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped meaty fare, as well as high-quality pellets once acclimated. A mature tank with stable parameters will help this species thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1142\" data-start=\"1126\"\u003eQuick Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"1348\" data-start=\"1143\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1167\" data-start=\"1143\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1160\" data-start=\"1145\"\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1197\" data-start=\"1168\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1186\" data-start=\"1170\"\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1229\" data-start=\"1198\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1217\" data-start=\"1200\"\u003eMaximum Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1267\" data-start=\"1230\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1254\" data-start=\"1232\"\u003eMinimum Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1325\" data-start=\"1268\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1279\" data-start=\"1270\"\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carnivore (meaty frozen and prepared foods)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1348\" data-start=\"1326\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1342\" data-start=\"1328\"\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re looking for a calm, reef-safe fish with natural beauty and interesting perch-and-hover behavior, the Tobacco Basslet is a fantastic addition to a saltwater aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foxy Saltwater Tropicals","offers":[{"title":"Small \/ Medium","offer_id":52548641456442,"sku":null,"price":24.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":52548641489210,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL","offer_id":52548641521978,"sku":null,"price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/8873\/0426\/files\/tobaccobasslet_c2c873b8-3ed0-4da0-a01d-f4221986a416.png?v=1684182366","url":"https:\/\/www.mysaltwaterfishstore.com\/products\/tobacco-basslets","provider":"Foxy Saltwater Tropicals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
