Yvonne Ferguson –
The fish arrived healthy and active. It has adapted well to the 55-gallon tank. It’s peaceful and doesn’t bother other fish. Good for a reef setup with proper care.
Alexandra Cornish –
We’ve had the wrasse for three months now. It’s active and stays in the middle of the tank. No aggression observed. Tank size is sufficient and water parameters are stable.
Emily Rees –
Easy to care for once the tank is cycled. The fish is curious and interacts with the environment. No issues with corals or invertebrates so far.
