The Black Fin Fairy Wrasse is a distinct and vibrant species of fairy wrasse. These fish display a predominantly greenish-blue body accented by a black-lined dorsal fin. Males are typically more vividly colored than females.
Reaching up to 6 inches in length, Black Fin Fairy Wrasses require a minimum tank size of 125 gallons. They are semi-aggressive and generally coexist peacefully with other fish, corals, and invertebrates, making them an excellent addition to reef aquariums. Due to their strong jumping ability, ensure your tank has a secure lid to prevent escape.
Only one male Black Fin Fairy Wrasse should be housed per tank to avoid aggression. They thrive in small groups of females or one male with several females. A tank with ample live rock is beneficial, providing opportunities for foraging between meals.
As carnivores, Black Fin Fairy Wrasses need a diet rich in meaty foods. Offer them mysis and brine shrimp, high-quality frozen foods, and premium pellet and flake foods to maintain their health and vitality.
