They are constantly on the move and add both color and activity to the aquarium. Like many members of the Halichoeres family, Radiant Wrasses require a sand bed where they can bury themselves for sleeping, protection, and stress relief. A mature aquarium with stable water conditions and a healthy sand bed is highly recommended. They are generally peaceful and integrate well into community reef aquariums. A secure lid or screen top is essential, as wrasses are known jumpers. Feeding & Diet Carnivorous and benefits from a varied diet.
