The Yellowtail Cleaner Wrasse is a seldom-seen species in the aquarium industry. These wrasses feature a predominantly white body accented with bold black stripes and a vibrant yellow tail.

Reaching up to 4 inches in length, Yellowtail Cleaner 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 tank.

These peaceful fish coexist well with other tank inhabitants but may nip at corals and consume some invertebrates, making them unsuitable for reef tanks. However, they are a fantastic addition to fish-only aquariums.

In their natural habitat, Yellowtail Cleaner Wrasses clean larger fish by removing dead skin and parasites. As carnivores, they thrive on a diet of meaty foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, nori, algae sheets, and high-quality frozen foods. Due to their small mouths, ensure their food is appropriately sized. They are also sensitive to ammonia levels.
