The Lineatus Fairy Wrasse is renowned for its vibrant appearance among wrasse species. These fish display a stunning array of colors, including reds, purples, pinks, blues, and yellows. Males are typically more vividly colored than females.

Lineatus Fairy Wrasses can reach up to 5 inches in length and require a minimum tank size of 75 gallons. They have the ability to change sex in the absence of a dominant male. Known for their peaceful nature, they coexist well with other reef tank inhabitants and do not harm corals or invertebrates.

These wrasses thrive in environments with ample live rock, providing them with places to hunt for small meaty invertebrates and hide when threatened. They are known to be strong jumpers, so a secure tank lid is essential to prevent escape.

As carnivores, Lineatus Fairy Wrasses need a diet rich in meaty foods. Offering mysis and brine shrimp, high-quality pellets and flakes, and premium frozen foods will ensure their growth and well-being.
