The Flame Wrasse has been a great addition to my 50-gallon reef tank. It’s active and colorful, and it doesn’t seem to harm other fish. I’ve noticed it defends its space around food, but it’s not overly aggressive. Good for intermediate reef keepers.

This female Flame Wrasse has adapted well to the tank. She’s vibrant and active, and she’s not causing any issues with the corals. I appreciate the clear size range provided. Needs a stable environment and some hiding spots.

I’ve had this wrasse for three months now. It’s very colorful and adds a lot of movement to the tank. It’s semi-aggressive, so I keep it with larger, calm fish. The mature size is within expectations and it’s thriving.
