Overview
The Gold Assessor Basslet, also known as the Golden Mini Grouper, is entirely yellow with red outlining the fins. The Gold Assessor Basslet will not bother invertebrates making it an excellent choice for reef aquariums.
For a single Gold Assessor Basslet, provide at least a 30 gallon tank - larger for more individuals, and plenty of rock caves for hiding. Due to its aggression and being territorial, it is best to keep only one male Gold Assessor Basslet in a single aquarium.
As a carnivore, the Gold Assessor Basslet will thrive on a diet of meaty foods such as finely chopped fresh or frozen marine fish, squid, mysis shrimp, vitamin-enriched brine shrimp, and frozen carnivore preparations. Feed at least twice a day.
Approximate Purchase Size: 3/4" to 2-1/4"

This is a follow up review I posted a while back. It is not necessarily nocturnal. Apparently it was being bullied by a striped Hogfish first thing in the morning. After the Hogfish decided to jump out of the tank the Basslet is out all day now
