Bought this lined wrasse for my 60-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and has adapted well after a few weeks. I keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t damage soft corals. Overall, a good addition to an expert-level setup.

The wrasse arrived healthy and active. I’ve noticed it’s not aggressive and stays near the lower tank area. Still cautious about its interactions with certain corals, so I’ve rearranged some of them for safety.

After two months, it’s thriving in my 55-gallon tank. The fish is calm and doesn’t show signs of stress. I appreciate the detailed care notes included with the product.
