Facts
These fish are generally peaceful within a community. These wrasses bury themselves in the sand for sleeping so not to worry if you dont see them out and about during the evening after the lights are out. A lid on the aquarium is recommended as they may jump. Will eat parasites off fish and corals, and might also eat feather dusters, tubeworms, flat worms, and wild shrimp.
