Carpenter Flasher Wrasse

$30.00

Carpenter Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus carpenteri)

The Carpenter Flasher Wrasse is a vibrant and energetic reef fish, known for its dazzling coloration and dynamic swimming behavior. Males display striking hues of electric blue, bright orange, and pink, often “flashing” their fins to attract attention, while females and juveniles are more subdued with soft pink and blue tones. Highly active and playful, this wrasse brings both color and constant movement to the midwater areas of reef aquariums.

Size: Typically grows up to 3 inches in length

Country of Origin: Indo-Pacific region, primarily around Indonesia

Latin Name: Paracheilinus carpenteri

Care Level: Moderate – thrives in well-established aquariums with stable water parameters, open swimming areas, and plenty of live rock for hiding

Carpenter Flasher Wrasses are carnivores that feed on small crustaceans and zooplankton. In captivity, they accept mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and other finely chopped meaty marine foods. They are reef safe, generally coexisting peacefully with corals and invertebrates, making them a colorful and lively addition to community reef tanks.
