They are timid at first but quickly become the showpiece of the tank thanks to their vibrant purple coloration. Black caps don’t bother any coral crustaceans and are considered reef-safe. They are cave dwellers and as such do need good hiding places. Seeing them upside down is very common as well as hiding for short period of time. Black caps can be kept in all sizes of aquaria, but should not be kept with other Basslet species such as Royal Grammas.
