Description
The Rainbow Wrasse is a vibrant, colorful saltwater fish that is known for its striking appearance and active behavior. Its body displays a brilliant array of colors, including blue, green, yellow, and red, which gives it its common name. It is a popular choice for aquarium enthusiasts due to its hardy nature and compatibility with a variety of tank mates.
Reef Safe
Yes, but with caution. Rainbow Wrasses are generally reef safe, but they may disturb small invertebrates and ornamental shrimp.
Environment
Rainbow Wrasses prefer a well-lit tank with plenty of open swimming space. They also require plenty of hiding spots, which can be provided by live rock. The substrate should be fine and soft as they like to burrow.
Behavior
Rainbow Wrasses are highly active and spend much of their time swimming around the tank. They are known to be jumpers, so a well-secured lid is essential. They are also known to burrow in the substrate for sleeping or when they feel threatened.
