Keeping Multicolor Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus lubbocki) in an Aquarium
The Multicolor Fairy Wrasse, also known as Cirrhilabrus lubbocki, is a beautiful and colorful fish that can make a great addition to a saltwater aquarium. Here are some things to keep in mind when keeping this fish:
Tank Requirements
These fish are relatively small, growing up to 3 inches in length, and can be kept in tanks as small as 30 gallons. However, they are active swimmers and appreciate plenty of open swimming space. They also benefit from plenty of hiding places, such as live rock, to retreat to when feeling threatened.
Water Conditions
These fish are native to the Western Pacific Ocean and require a stable water temperature between 72-78°F, a pH between 8.1-8.4, and a salinity of 1.020-1.025. They also require excellent water quality, so regular water changes and a good filtration system are a must.
Diet
Multicolor Fairy Wrasse are carnivores and should be fed a varied diet that includes high-quality frozen or live foods, such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and small pieces of chopped seafood. They may also accept high-quality flake or pellet foods.
Coolest Stuff
- The Multicolor Fairy Wrasse is a true showstopper, with a vibrant mix of colors including blue, green, yellow, and pink.
- They are peaceful fish that can be kept with other non-aggressive species, making them a great community fish.
- Male Multicolor Fairy Wrasse can be territorial with other males of the same species, so it's best to keep one male with several females.
- These fish are known to "dance" during courtship, with the males displaying their colorful fins and swimming patterns to attract females.
- They are hardy and relatively easy to care for, making them a great choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.
