The Banggai Cardinal is a very intriguing fish with its silver and black colored body. These fish have large eyes and like to spend their time hovering in place. Their black tail lobes are covered with white spots. They have two very high dorsal fins as well as large pectoral fins, which aid their behavior. The Bangaii is a mouth brooder that carries its eggs in its mouth until the fry hatch. These fish will commonly pair up and mate in the home aquarium. They like to have ledges in the aquarium that they can hang underneath.Photo by saltwaterfish.com member, Bronco300: Luke Plank
