Peppermint Hogfish - Peppermint Candycane Hogfish

(Bodianus sepiacaudus)

The Peppermint Hogfish up to this point has been a rare find in aquariums up to this point however  of late it is being offered a bit more regularly.  It tends to be a pretty good actor in the aquarium but may eat small inverts if not few multiple times daily.  There have been very few reports of this fish having issues with other non-aggressive fish.
