Tricolor Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis)
The Tricolor Fairy Wrasse is a vibrant and active reef fish, admired for its striking mix of colors. Males display brilliant shades of red, purple, and orange with iridescent highlights, while females and juveniles show more subtle patterns. Constantly in motion, these wrasses add a burst of energy and shifting color to reef aquariums, especially when kept in harems where males show off their most intense displays.
Size: Typically grows up to 3 inches in length
Country of Origin: Red Sea and Western Indian Ocean
Latin Name: Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis
Care Level: Moderate – requires a peaceful, well-established aquarium with plenty of rockwork for shelter and open water for swimming
Tricolor Fairy Wrasses are carnivores that feed on zooplankton and finely chopped meaty foods. They are considered reef safe, as they do not harm corals or clams, though they may consume very small ornamental crustaceans.
