The Greensided Jawfish is a very rare specimen, it has a bright green body and an orange head.
They are engineers of the substrate and will create a lavish bunker in which to retreat if threatened. Keep single with peaceful tank mates and provide thick substrate and loose rubble for burrows. Can jump out of open aquariums. May be a threat to other substrate dwelling fish and small shrimps. The Greensided Jawfish is deemed expert due to the fact that they need their own private burrow to not feel threatened.
Feed a variety of small meaty foods such as mysis and brine shrimp. Once comfortable in its new home try prepared foods like Ocean Nutrition Formula One Small Pellets. You may have to put food close to its burrowto entice it.
