Yellow Lunar Wrasse

The Yellow Lunar Wrasse as an adult, takes on a yellow appearance if female, and a blue appearance if male. Both sexes have facial markings in green and fine vertical striping along the body. The fins are also very colorful.

It should reside in a 400 litre or larger aquarium, with other aggressive tank mates, such as Tangs, Puffers, small Triggers and Angels. They are active fish and require plenty of rocks for hiding and a tight-fitting lid. It will become territorial and harass any new additions to the community, therefore, it should be added last to the tank. It may eat mantis shrimp and bristleworms. The Yellow Lunar Wrasse does not eat corals.

The Yellow Lunar 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.
