Quick Stats

Description

The Broom Tail Wrasse (Red Sea XL) is an impressive and vibrantly colored fish, showcasing shades of green, blue, red, and yellow, with a distinctive broom-like tail that gives it a unique and majestic appearance. As a large, fully grown wrasse, it is an eye-catching and dynamic addition to expansive marine aquariums, requiring significant space due to its size and active nature.

This wrasse hails from the Red Sea and is semi-aggressive, making it best suited to a fish-only tank or carefully monitored reef setups, where it may prey on smaller invertebrates. A minimum tank size of 250 gallons is recommended to provide ample swimming space and territories, reducing potential aggression. The Broom Tail Wrasse coexists well with other large, robust fish but may show territorial behavior, especially if confined.

As a carnivore, this wrasse thrives on a diet rich in meaty foods such as shrimp, squid, and marine fish preparations, which help maintain its vibrant colors and robust health. With its striking appearance and engaging personality, the Broom Tail Wrasse is best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists who can provide the space and care it needs to flourish in a large marine environment.
