Description
The Scott’s Fairy Wrasse (Fiji) is a brilliantly colored fish, with hues that vary from vibrant blues and greens to striking red and orange highlights. Known for its active nature, this wrasse brings dynamic color and movement to the aquarium. Ideal for peaceful reef setups, it gets along well with other non-aggressive tank mates, though it may display mild territorial behavior in confined spaces. This species thrives in reef aquariums, where it can forage among live rocks, adding to the tank’s ecosystem. It’s a stunning choice for aquarists looking to enhance the visual appeal of their aquarium.
