What to know before you buy.
Also known as the Canary Wrasse, this bright yellow, torpedo-shaped fish is a powerful hunter of small pests and an indispensable member of the reef clean-up crew.
Key traits
Keeping Yellow Wrasse healthy in a South African setup.
Size the aquarium to Yellow Wrasse's adult size and activity level. Provide hiding spots and stable, well-filtered water; it suits a community setup.
Keep pH 8–8.4 and 24–27°C. Stable parameters matter more than chasing perfect numbers; acclimate new arrivals slowly.
Carnivore. Feed small amounts it clears in a couple of minutes, and vary the diet.
Peaceful. Watch it at feeding time and at lights-out to see its real temperament in your tank.
Choose tankmates of similar size and temperament with the same water needs. Avoid fin-nippers and anything large enough to eat it.
Breeding success with Yellow Wrasse depends on the line and water chemistry; ask your shop about proven pairs.
