I’ve had my Redtail Tarmarin Wrasse for six months now. It’s peaceful and active, though I’ve had to watch closely for any signs of eating small corals. The tank is 75 gallons, and it’s been a good addition to the reef community. Only recommend for experienced aquarists.

This wrasse is beautiful and stays calm in the tank. I noticed it occasionally nibbles on small polyps, so I’ve added more robust invertebrates. It’s not for beginners, but worth it if you’re prepared for the responsibility.

The fish arrived healthy and seems to be adjusting well. I’m still learning how to manage its behavior around other reef life. It’s not aggressive, but I need to keep an eye on it daily.
