Description
The female Red Margin Fairy Wrasse is a striking fish with a soft blend of red, blue, and yellow hues, complemented by a vivid red margin on her dorsal and tail fins. Slightly more subdued in coloration than her male counterpart, she brings a graceful beauty to the tank. Known for her peaceful temperament, this wrasse is ideal for community and reef aquariums. She is active, often swimming in the mid to upper water columns, and gets along well with other peaceful tank mates. A diet of small meaty foods like mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood will keep her healthy and vibrant.
