I’ve had my Scott’s Fairy Wrasse for six months now. It’s very active and colorful, and it doesn’t bother the corals. The tank is 60 gallons, and it’s been stable since setup. Great addition to a reef tank.
Wanda Russell –
The fish looks beautiful and stays calm around other fish and corals. I’m happy with the peaceful nature and the vibrant colors. Needs a bit of space, but worth it for the visual appeal.

This wrasse has adapted well to our 55-gallon tank. It’s active during the day and doesn’t show aggression. The coral community remains undisturbed, which is a relief.
