Yellow Fin Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus Flavidorsalis)
Compatibility and Behavior
The Yellow Fin Fairy Wrasse is an eye-catching Cirrhilabrus species that you can’t miss with its contrasting red, white, and yellow coloration. Males typically show brighter tones and more pronounced yellow in the fins, especially when displaying to females or other wrasses. This species is peaceful and reef safe, however, being one of the smaller Fairy Wrasse species, it is best kept in peaceful community reef tanks with similarly-sized fish.
Aquarium Requirements
Provide a mature saltwater aquarium of at least 50 gallons with plenty of open swimming space and ample live rock for cover and sleeping retreats. Yellow Fin Fairy Wrasses typically wedge into rock crevices at night rather than burying in the sand, so caves, ledges, and shaded areas in the aquascape are important. A tight-fitting lid or mesh top is essential, as this species can jump when startled.
