Captive breeding / propagation

The offspring of Ostorhinchus cyanosoma are possible. Unfortunately, the number of offspring is not large enough to cover the demand of the trade. If you are interested in Ostorhinchus cyanosoma, please ask your dealer for offspring. If you already own Ostorhinchus cyanosoma, try breeding yourself. This will help to improve the availability of offspring in the trade and to conserve natural stocks.

Info

(Bleeker, 1853)

Ostorhinchus cyanosoma inhabits sheltered clear water areas of lagoon and seaward reefs from depths of 1 to at least 49 meters.

This cardinalfish is found in small or large aggregations under ledges, in holes, or even among long spines of sea urchins.
It feeds on planktonic crustaceans and small invertebrates and has been reared successfully in captivity.

Seit Januar 2022 halte ich vier respektive heute noch drei O. cyanosoma. Offensichtlich besteht die Gruppe aus einem weiblichen und zwei männlichen Tiere, da die beiden Männchen Eier im Maul tragen. Dies könnte darauf hindeuten, dass Ostorhinchus cyanosoma in einem umgekehrten Harem lebt.
