Personal Observations:
Fairy Wrasse has become a generic term for many different colour variations of the Wrasse family. It is important that you make sure you are getting a reef safe wrasse as many are not. Different varieties will nip at LPS, SPS and inverts. Including Clams. But the Fairy wrasse is one of my favorate salt water fish. I my tank the Fairy Wrasse has made more shy fish come out from hiding. It is a colourful fish that is Visible most of the time. Making it a great splash of colour to your tank.
It is recommended that a Fairy Wrasse be kept in a tank 50G or Larger
Like all wrasses they have been know to jump.
Feeding: a variety of meaty foods high in nutrition.
I feed mine Mysis and Cyclop ezee along with flake high in
