Description
The Bird Wrasse is a unique and interesting saltwater fish species known for its elongated body and bird-like snout. It is a vibrant green color, with males being a darker hue than females. This fish is active and likes to swim in open water, making it a popular choice for larger aquariums.
Reef Safe
Yes, but with caution. Bird Wrasses are generally considered safe for reef aquariums, but they may disturb smaller invertebrates.
Environment
Bird Wrasses prefer a well-lit aquarium with plenty of open space for swimming. They also require plenty of hiding spots, which can be provided with rocks and corals. The aquarium should have a tight-fitting lid, as Bird Wrasses are known jumpers.
Behavior
Bird Wrasses are active swimmers that enjoy open spaces. They are known for their unique swimming style, which involves using their pectoral fins to move in a rowing motion. These fish are generally peaceful but can be territorial towards other wrasses and similar species.
