Why We're Obsessed
Melanurus wrasses are colorful and useful: they hunt flatworms, pyramid snails, and other pests. A great "working" fish that still looks good.
Care: Reef safe with corals; may eat very small inverts. Needs a sand bed to sleep in and a tight lid. Feed mysis and pellets. Max size about 4.5". Minimum tank size: 50 gallons.
