General Description: The Yellow Assessor, also referred to as the Gold Assessor, are found in the Western Pacific Ocean from Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and the Coral Sea. Here, they are often observed hanging upside down in caves. Its vibrant yellow color makes it a striking addition to any peaceful fish only or reef aquarium. Only one assessor per aquarium is recommended. An adult Yellow assessor can reach a size of approximately 2-1/2″ to 3″.
Diet Requirements: The Yellow assessor is primarily carnivorous. A diet largely consisting of high quality, vitamin enriched frozen preparations is absolutely necessary to maintain optimal health, coloration, and immune function. Such foods can include, but are not limited to, brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, calanus and copepods. We highly encourage soaking frozen foods in vitamin and fatty acid supplements. A Yellow assessor may accept high quality flake and pellet foods.
Care Requirements: A minimum 30 gallon aquarium, with plenty of live rock or caves for hiding, is ideal for a Yellow assessor. They are generally peaceful, though may show territoriality toward fish of similar shape that also spend time in similar areas as it in the aquarium. Compatibility with other basslets is likely on a case by case basis. A Yellow assessor will be more withdrawn if its in an aquarium with too aggressive of tank mates. Recommended water conditions, 72-78° F, KH 8-12, pH 8.1-8.4, salinity 1.020-1.025.
