August 17, 2023Vrolik’s Wrasse, Male
Vrolik’s Wrasse, also known as the Yellow-ear Wrasse or Red-breasted Wrasse, is a species of marine fish that belongs to the family Labridae. The male Vrolik’s Wrasse has a unique and striking appearance, with a bright red or orange coloration on its lower body, a yellowish-green coloration on its upper body, and distinct yellow stripes behind the eye and on the upper lip. The male Vrolik’s Wrasse also has elongated dorsal and anal fins, which it can raise and lower to communicate with other fish and to intimidate rivals. These fish are found in the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region, including the Red Sea, and typically inhabit rocky or coral reef environments at depths of up to 50 meters. The diet of Vrolik’s Wrasse consists mainly of small invertebrates, such as crustaceans, mollusks, and worms. In the aquarium trade, Vrolik’s Wrasse are highly sought after due to their stunning coloration and unique appearance. However, they can be challenging to keep in captivity and require a well-established and appropriately sized aquarium with plenty of hiding places and open swimming areas. Vrolik’s Wrasse are also known to be aggressive towards other fish with a similar body shape and coloration, so it’s important to carefully select tankmates.

Princess Anthias
Call for PriceThe Princess Anthias (Pseudanthias smithvanizi) is a species of marine fish in the family Serranidae, native to the Western Indian Ocean. They are popular in the aquarium trade due to their bright coloration and active swimming behavior. In the wild, they are found in coral reefs at depths of 30-60 meters, but in captivity they can be kept in shallower aquariums with good water quality and ample hiding places. They are known to be a bit more sensitive than some other species of anthias, so proper acclimation and a well-established tank is important for their success.
