The Zigzag Wrasse has been a great addition to my 55-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and doesn’t bother the corals. Easy to care for once the tank is stable. Active but not aggressive. Perfect for intermediate aquarists.

I’ve had this wrasse for three months now. It’s active and colorful, and it doesn’t eat the polyps. The tank needs to be at least 50 gallons, which I have. It’s a good fit for a balanced reef setup.
