Beau's Fairy Wrasse
Snapshot: Beau's Fairy Wrasse dazzles with hypnotic swirls of electric blue and vibrant purple, bringing both style and substance to your saltwater setup.
Other tidbits: Can grow up to 10cm or so. Distributed throughout tropical waters stretching from northeastern New Guinea to the Solomon Islands. This is a relatively low-maintenance, hard-working pest buster that sweeps through rockwork, keeping things fresh.
Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system or reef aquarium. Thick, sandy substrate needed.
Aquarium set-up: To keep this beauty safe and chill, set up plenty of hideouts in live rock. When it needs a little “me time,” it can easily slip away and recharge, making it a fascinating and colorful tankmate! And don't forget the lid — these acrobats are known to make daring leaps from open aquariums! Wrasses love their comfort — give them a cozy fine sandbed to burrow into when they need a snooze or sense trouble. Maintain an aquatic utopia by nailing the basics: rock-solid water quality with top-notch filtration and routine partial water changes.
Feeding: Keep your Wrasse in top form with a gourmet diet of vitamin-enriched frozen mysis and brine shrimp, alongside high-quality marine flakes and pellets.
AQT note: All our fish feast on a diet of seaweed, marine pellets, flakes and frozen treats under our care. Keep the feast going in your tank!
