Neon Wrasse
The Neon Wrasse is a hardy, active and useful fish. This wrasse prefers to be added to well established aquariums with a sandy substrate and lots of rockwork. The Neon Wrasse likes to submerge itself in the sand when frightened or to sleep. Feeding them multiple times a day is recommended as they are very active and keeping them full will help keep them away from desirable inverts. In addition, they are known predators of a myriad of unwanted pests like fireworms and pyramidellid snails. The Neon Wrasse prefers to be the only one of its species in the aquarium. They have an adult size of about 7". This wrasse is a great choice for reef aquariums because they will not bother corals/anemones but if they get hungry enough, they may go after shrimps and snails. Juveniles are yellow with a neon blue stripe that runs the length of its body. The adults will morph to having a yellow heard, a thick black band and a vibrant blue body.
