Royal Gramma Basslet: A Splash of Caribbean Color!

Bring the vibrant hues of the Western Atlantic to your home aquarium with the captivating Royal Gramma Basslet. This popular, hardy marine fish is a true gem.

Overview

The Royal Gramma Basslet (*Gramma loreto*) is instantly recognizable by its striking two-toned body, featuring a brilliant purple or violet front half that smoothly transitions into a rich golden yellow on its rear and tail. A subtle black streak through the eye and a small black spot on the dorsal fin add to its distinctive charm. Typically reaching about 7.5 cm, these active yet shy fish love exploring rockwork and caves, often swimming playfully upside down under overhangs.

Care Level

Considered easy to moderate in care, the Royal Gramma Basslet is an excellent choice for both novice and experienced aquarists. They are generally peaceful towards other species but can be territorial with their own kind or similarly shaped fish, making individual or established pair keeping ideal. Always ensure compatibility with tankmates to maintain healthy aquarium fish.

Tank Essentials

A minimum of 115 litres is recommended for a single Royal Gramma, with plenty of live rock providing caves and hiding spots to mimic their natural reef habitat. Maintain stable water conditions with a pH range of 8.1–8.4, a temperature of 22–27°C, and a specific gravity of 1.020–1.025.

Diet

As a carnivore and planktivore, the Royal Gramma Basslet thrives on a varied diet. Offer high-quality meaty foods such as frozen mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood, supplemented with marine pellets or flakes. Feed small portions once or twice daily.
