Basslets

Basslets may be small, but they know how to stand out. With their vibrant colors and laid-back nature, they bring both beauty and personality to a saltwater tank. They do best in setups with plenty of live rock, where they can dart in and out of hiding spots while keeping an eye on their surroundings.

Two favorites in the hobby are the Royal Gramma Basslet, showing off a bold purple-to-yellow fade, and the Black Cap Basslet, with its deep, striking coloration. They’re tough enough for beginners yet interesting enough to keep experienced aquarists hooked.

With the right setup, basslets settle in quickly and become an effortless part of the tank’s rhythm. Low-maintenance, peaceful, and always fun to watch—they’re an easy win for any marine aquarium.
