Identify the species

Caesio teres is a reef-associated marine fish from the Indo-Pacific. Look for a blue body and a gold stripe leading into a golden tail. Frontier describes it as a schooling species that feeds on plankton.
This is natural-history context from Frontier’s biography, not a table of game simulation values.
Edition and official listing
This is one of the six additional Deluxe animals. It is separate from the scenery-only preorder bonus.
Official enclosure labels: Aquarium / Exhibit. These labels describe categories, not a compatibility verdict.

Planning notes for this animal
For a reef concept, this gives you a visually different option from the heavier-bodied giant grouper. Plan an open-water viewing area in your sketch, but leave stocking numbers unset until the game’s group-size requirements are verified.
These are our design suggestions, not verified welfare requirements.
Habitat requirements and compatibility
Do not translate wild schools of hundreds into a game minimum. A shared reef setting also does not prove compatibility with sharks or other predatory fish.
We have not verified space, temperature, group limits or compatible species for Blue and Gold Fusilier in a released game build. The calculator and compatibility checker remain demos; missing values are not zero and missing pairing evidence is not approval.
Use the building guide for the currently sourced overview. Once actual gameplay values are checked, requirements will be published at this same URL.
