Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

The Lyretail Wrasse has exquisite coloration, hardiness and large adult size of 10" that make them very desirable in the aquarium hobby. When young, these are relatively reef safe. But as they age, they are more likely to consume motile inverts of all types, including snails, crabs, sea stars and even urchins. Feeding them multiple times a day is recommended as they are very active and keeping them full will help keep them away from desirable inverts. In addition, they are known predators of a myriad of unwanted pests like bristle worms and mantis shrimp. They are capable jumpers at all stages of their life, so a covered aquarium is necessary. Juveniles are mostly blue with some black spots and blotch caudal tail. Adults turn green and the black blotch will turn yellow. Blue and orange outlines this wrasse's fins.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
