The **Yellow and White Coris Wrasse** is a vibrant and distinctive species of wrasse. Initially, these fish are predominantly yellow with a white underside. As they grow, their color shifts to a pinkish-purple hue.

Reaching up to 4 inches in length, **Yellow and White Coris Wrasses** require a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. They are known for their jumping ability, so a secure lid is essential to prevent them from leaping out of the aquarium.

These peaceful fish coexist well with other marine life, though they may consume smaller invertebrates and feather dusters. Exercise caution when introducing them to a reef tank. Multiple **Yellow and White Coris Wrasses** can be housed together, but only in male-female pairs or groups of females, as males may become aggressive towards each other.

As carnivores, they thrive on a diet rich in meaty foods, such as mysis and brine shrimp, meaty frozen foods, and high-quality flake foods.
