The Earle's Wrasse is one of the most sought after and hard to find of all the wrasse species. Earle's Wrasses have a long and slender body that is mostly reddish pink in color with strong darker horizontal stripes.

Earle's Wrasses reach a maximum adult size of around 5 inches and need to be kept in tanks that are at least 90 gallons in size. Earle's Wrasses are strong jumpers and need to be kept in tanks that have a tight fitting lid with no holes large enough for them to jump through if startled.

Earle's Wrasses are mostly peaceful fish and might only nip at other fairy wrasses, especially other males. Earle's Wrasses are best kept singularly or in a male / female pair. Two males might be aggressive towards each other. Earle's Wrasses are considered reef safe and shouldn't bother other fish, coral or inverts found in a reef tank.

Earle's Wrasses are carnivores and require a diet that is rich in meaty foods. Foods like mysis and brine shrimp, high quality meaty frozen foods and high quality flake and pellet foods should keep your Earle's Wrasse happy and healthy.
