The Blue Stripe Pipefish is a stronger swimmer than its seahorse cousins and rarely comes into direct contact with the substrate.
The Blue Stripe Pipefish has a long, slender body with a tiny, tubular mouth and an oval, flag shaped tail. The body is orange with a blue line running down from its eye to tail. The tail is orange with a white margin.
The Blue Stripe Pipefish normally prefers to eat only live copepods in a mature reef aquarium with plenty of live rock or macroalgae. An ideal diet to start this fish on is Live Copepods and live baby brine shrimp. However, live baby brine should not make up the majority of its diet.
The Blue Stripe Pipefish may be housed in an aquarium that is 200 litres or larger. It may be kept with small, shy fish such as small gobies, seahorses, dragonets, and firefish. Aggressive, territorial, or fast-moving fish do not make good companions. Pipefish will be harmed by anemones and corals with stinging tentacles or corals that are large enough to consume them, such as brain corals. Pipefish can also be harmed by invertebrates such as crabs and large shrimp.
