Cleaner Wrasse

$30.00

Cleaner Wrasse (Labroides dimidiatus)

The Cleaner Wrasse is a small, colorful reef fish, instantly recognized by its sleek body with a distinctive black stripe running from snout to tail over a vibrant blue and white background. Renowned for its cleaning behavior, it removes parasites and dead tissue from other fish, playing an important ecological role in both the wild and reef aquariums.

Size: Typically grows up to 3 inches in length

Country of Origin: Indo-Pacific

Latin Name: Labroides dimidiatus

Care Level: Difficult – requires a well-established aquarium with a stable population of host fish and excellent water quality

Cleaner Wrasses are carnivores that feed primarily on ectoparasites, small crustaceans, and other tiny invertebrates. They are generally considered reef-safe, as they interact positively with other fish, but they are notoriously challenging to keep in captivity because they may refuse prepared foods and need a consistent supply of “client” fish to thrive.
