Scientific name: Gramma
The genus Gramma includes species like the Royal Gramma (Gramma loreto) and the Blackcap Basslet (Gramma melacara), known for their vibrant colors and peaceful demeanor. These small, reef-safe fish are popular in the hobby for their hardiness and ease of care. They prefer rockwork with ample hiding places and can be shy initially. Grammas are planktivores, feeding on small crustaceans and zooplankton in the wild, and adapt well to a variety of prepared aquarium diets.
