• Juvenile Rainbow Wrasse are generally reef safe but as they mature can start being a bit destructive.

• Harems can be kept in the aquarium with 1 male and several females if added at the same time.

• Provide an aquarium with ample rock work, cracks, crevices and caves for hiding and resting.

• Coris Wrasse are burrowers and need a thick sand bed to sleep and rest in.

• Avoid adding smaller more peaceful fish as the Coris Wrasse may harass them.

• Wrasse are hermaphrodites meaning they start as juveniles/females but at some point in their life may turn into a male.

• Wrasse may jump provide an aquarium with a tight fitting lid.
