Bought the juvenile Chiseltooth Wrasse for my 30-gallon reef tank. It has been active and peaceful since arrival. No aggression toward corals or other fish. Good for intermediate keepers who want a colorful, reef-safe wrasse.

The fish arrived healthy and small, as described. It’s been adjusting well in the tank. I appreciate that it’s peaceful and doesn’t eat coral. Still monitoring for any changes in behavior.

Perfect addition to my reef setup. The juvenile size is ideal for a small tank. It’s active, curious, and doesn’t cause any issues with the invertebrates or other fish.
