The Green Wrasse is a lively addition to my marine tank. It swims constantly and keeps the environment active. I noticed it eating small crustaceans, which helps reduce pests. It’s not the easiest fish to keep, but once the tank is stable, it becomes a joy to watch.

I’ve had this wrasse for three months now. It’s very active and colorful, and it does seem to help with cleaning small bits of detritus. The tank needs to be well-maintained, but the energy it brings is worth it.
