Stephen Alsop –
Bought this wrasse for my 55-gallon reef tank. It has been active and peaceful since arrival. No aggression toward corals or other fish. Feeds well on small crustaceans and algae. Good choice for intermediate reef keepers.

The wrasse arrived healthy and has adapted well in my tank. It’s not overly active but stays in a consistent area. I appreciate the reef compatibility. A solid addition to a balanced community.

This wrasse has been a stable member of my reef system. It doesn’t eat corals and is very calm. I’ve had it for three months and it’s thriving. Easy to maintain with regular feeding.
