I’ve kept this wrasse for six months in a 100-gallon reef tank. It’s active and colorful, though it does defend its space near the rockwork. Feeding is straightforward with high-quality marine flakes and frozen foods. Good for experienced aquarists who can handle occasional aggression.

The fish arrived healthy and vibrant. It’s not the most interactive, but it adds a nice touch to the tank. I’ve had to monitor its behavior around other fish, especially smaller ones. Still worth the effort for reef enthusiasts.

This tiny wrasse has become a highlight in my tank. It’s active, curious, and blends well with the reef environment. I appreciate the clarity of the species description and the size specification. A great addition to a mature marine setup.
