Golden Rhomboidalis Wrasse
Snapshot: Decked out in gold with a pop of electric blue on the head, these beauties sport a maze of intricate lines all over. It also has a bold, diamond-shaped tail.
Other tidbits: Can grow up to 8cm or so. Distributed throughout the Central / West Pacific Ocean.
Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system or reef aquarium. Thick, sandy substrate needed.
Aquarium set-up: Needs plenty of cool hideaways — think nooks and crannies between live rocks. This swimmer thrives with room to roam, so make sure there's space to show off those moves. 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!
