One of the larger wrasse species. Juveniles change colour many times as they grow into very differently coloured adults. This large, active, and boisterous wrasse is best housed with large fish that can handle themselves such as; Triggerfish, Pufferfish, Morays, etc. May harass or even kill smaller or less aggressive tankmates. Safe with most corals, but, will eat almost all inverts.
Is recommended feeding twice per day on suitable frozen food. Some reef fish can jump from an open topped aquarium, we recommend using a tight fitting lid with no gaps. A large and active species, it may pick on and even kill weaker fish. Best kept with other large active fish, not suitable for housing with typical small reef fish. Will eat almost all inverts.
