Naoko's Fairy Wrasse: Male - Cirrhilabrus naokoae

Naoko's Fairy Wrasse is a breathtaking species recently identified in the Indian Ocean. These wrasses exhibit a sleek, elongated body with a vibrant red upper half and a pure white lower half. A distinct yellow stripe runs horizontally along their body. Males typically display more vivid colors than females.

Reaching up to 5 inches in length, Naoko's Fairy Wrasse requires a minimum tank size of 90 gallons. Known for their jumping ability, they should be housed in aquariums with secure lids to prevent escape. These peaceful fish coexist well with other marine life, including corals and invertebrates, and are ideally kept in male-female pairs.

For optimal health, Naoko's Fairy Wrasse thrives in tanks with ample established rock and a refugium, offering hiding spots and small invertebrates to snack on between meals.

As carnivores, their diet should include meaty foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, along with high-quality frozen, flake, and pellet foods to ensure they remain healthy and content.
