Received the juvenile Red Coris Formosa in excellent condition. It was active and showed vibrant red coloring within a week. The Maldives origin is clearly visible in its health and color. Great for a reef tank with proper setup.

The fish arrived quickly and looked healthy. It has been in the tank for two months and is still active. A bit shy at first but now swims confidently. Would recommend to experienced reef keepers.
