The most unique aspect about the Birdnose Wrasse is its elongated beak which is used to catch long, skinny prey and hold it captive while breaking it up into bite-size pieces. The female is brownish black, and the male is variations of green. For this reason the male is often called the Green Birdnose Wrasse, and the female, the Black or Brown Birdnose Wrasse.
A 450 litre or larger aquarium with large amounts of live rock which furnish food and hiding places provides a good environment. Because the Birdnose Wrasse is a “jumper,” a tight-fitting lid on the tank is necessary. If a pair of Birdnose Wrasse are to be included in a tank, the female should be introduced first.
The Birdnose Wrasse diet should include vitamin enriched frozen mysis shrimp, vitamin enriched frozen brine shrimp, and other meaty foods along with a high quality marine flake and marine pellet food.
