Bought this wrasse for my 55-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and has adapted well to the environment. I noticed it’s not aggressive and doesn’t eat small corals. Good for beginners looking for a calm, colorful fish.

The fish arrived healthy and stayed active in my tank. I’m cautious about its interactions with small polyps, but overall it’s a stable addition. Works well with other peaceful fish.

Easy to care for and very calm. It’s been in my tank for three months and shows no signs of stress. The size is larger than expected, and it’s a beautiful addition to the display.
