I added the Scott’s Fairy Wrasse to my 50-gallon reef tank and it has been very peaceful. It doesn’t eat corals or disturb other fish. The fish is active and colorful, and it adapts well to the tank environment. Great choice for intermediate reef keepers.

The wrasse is calm and fits well in my reef setup. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still healthy. It doesn’t show aggression toward other fish, which is a relief. Tank size is adequate and the care level matches the description.
