The Yellow Wrasse is a vibrant and lively fish, known for its striking yellow body and distinctive black eyespot on its dorsal fin. These fish can grow up to 5 inches and require a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. Due to their jumping ability, it's essential to have a securely covered tank to prevent escape. The Yellow Wrasse is a peaceful species, making it a great addition to community tanks, though caution is advised when adding them to reef tanks as they may consume smaller invertebrates while also helping control pests like fireworms.
For optimal health, The Yellow Wrasse needs a tank with a deep sandbed for hiding and sleeping. A well-established live rock environment will keep them engaged as they forage for small invertebrates. As carnivores, their diet should include meaty foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, small seafood pieces, and high-quality frozen, flake, and pellet foods.
