The Gold Back Fairy Wrasse has a brilliant orange coloured back with a magenta coloured stripe covering the head and extending the entire length of the fish to the tail. The male of this species develops a dark red crown marking on the head. Colours may vary depending on the fish's mood. When courting, the male will display increased colour intensity.
The Gold Back Fairy Wrasse is a very peaceful, active fish that will bring both colour and activity to a fish-only or reef aquarium of 300L or larger. They will not bother any corals or invertebrates making them a perfect fish for the reef aquarium. These wrasses like to jump, so a tight fitting canopy is recommended.
The Gold Back Fairy 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.
