Radiant Wrasse

The Radiant Wrasse (Halichoeres iridis), also known as the Iridis Wrasse, can be found among the reefs of Africa and the Red Sea. They have a vibrant yellow head, with green stripes, that fades into a maroon body. They reach a maximum size of 5 inches and do well in reef aquariums, though their diet consists of crustaceans, so they should not be kept with small, prized invertebrates. They are peaceful towards tankmates, though they may show aggression towards others of their own species; due to this, they are best kept singly or in bonded pairs. They should be offered a variety of crustaceans or vitamin-enriched carnivorous preparations multiple times a day. Plenty of live rock and substrate should be available, as they hide among rocks or bury themselves during the night.
