I’ve had my Six Line Wrasse for three months now and it’s very active and colorful. It’s easy to care for and doesn’t stress the coral in my 30-gallon tank. Great for beginners looking for a lively fish.

The fish arrived healthy and has been thriving in my 24-gallon tank. It’s not overly aggressive, and I haven’t had any issues with it chasing smaller fish. A solid choice for a reef setup.
