The **Brunneus Fairy Wrasse** (Cirrhilabrus brunneus) is a captivating addition to any aquarium, known for its unique beauty. While not extremely rare, it's not commonly found in local fish shops. This species thrives in aquariums, much like its relatives.

The **Brunneus Fairy Wrasse** features a dark purple, nearly black body, complemented by a vibrant yellow underbelly. Its green fins with black tips add to its stunning appearance.

Reaching a maximum size of about 2.5 inches, this active fish flourishes in tanks of 50 gallons or more, especially with peaceful tank mates. Exercise caution when housing multiple Cirrhilabrus species, and consider using an acclimation box to minimize aggression when introducing a new fairy wrasse.

As a carnivore, the **Brunneus Fairy Wrasse** benefits from a diet of meaty frozen foods. We suggest feeding it frozen mysis or brine shrimp, along with high-quality pellet food.
