Description
Scott’s Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus scottorum) is a vibrant, active wrasse known for its striking blend of blue, red, yellow, and green colors that change under different lighting conditions. Originating from the Western Pacific and Australian reefs, this wrasse brings a splash of color and energy to reef tanks and is particularly eye-catching as it moves gracefully through open spaces.
A peaceful carnivore, Scott’s Fairy Wrasse enjoys a diet of meaty foods like mysis shrimp and enriched brine shrimp. It thrives in a well-covered tank to prevent jumping and appreciates plenty of hiding spots among rocks and corals. Ideal for reef aquariums, this wrasse is compatible with most non-aggressive tankmates, adding vibrant personality and beauty to any marine setup.
