The Scott’s Fairy Wrasse has been a great addition to our 50-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and active, and it doesn’t bother other fish. We’ve had it for three months and it’s thriving.

This wrasse is small and fits well in our tank. It’s calm and doesn’t show aggression. We’re happy with the size and behavior, though it does need a stable environment.
