Description

The Blue Spotted Tamarin Wrasse is a rare and exquisitely patterned fish, known for its vibrant blue spots against a green background, often complemented by subtle red accents on the fins and face. This species is highly prized by advanced aquarists for its unique beauty but requires a significant level of care due to its sensitivity to water conditions and feeding requirements.

An expert-level fish, the Blue Spotted Tamarin Wrasse thrives in well-established aquariums with ample live rock and sand for hiding and foraging. This species is typically peaceful, making it compatible with other non-aggressive fish, but it may require caution in reef settings as it may occasionally nip at small invertebrates.

Feeding can be challenging, as this wrasse requires a varied carnivorous diet including live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and other small crustaceans. It may take time to acclimate to captive food offerings, so patience and consistent feeding are essential. Due to its high care requirements and delicate nature, this species is recommended only for experienced aquarists prepared to provide specialized care.
