The Sailfin Fairy Wrasse is active and peaceful in my 55-gallon reef tank. It has adapted well to the environment and doesn’t eat corals. Easy to observe and adds a nice color touch to the tank.

I’ve had this wrasse for three months now. It’s calm and doesn’t interfere with other fish. The size is within the expected range and it’s a good addition to a mid-sized reef setup.

Great choice for intermediate reef keepers. The fish is vibrant and stays in its area without causing stress to other inhabitants. Feeding is straightforward and it responds well to regular meals.
